One or 2 slight disappointments but some will not bothersomeguests
As long as you can cope with a nightime visit downstairs to the loo on a twisting slightly smooth wooden staircase then OK....also walking on a gravel path in the dark carrying a 17kg suitcase was challenging for a 77 yr old....one or 2 other minor issues..but overall a pleasant stay. I did contact the owners about all of my issues

You couldn't want for more.
We had a fantastic couple of nights at the Apple Shed. It was comfy and cosy and very well furnished and equipped. You couldn't want for more. The hosts were very communicative, giving very detailed and helpful information. They had left lots of nice things to eat, such as Sourdough bread, eggs, crumpets, cereal, juice, milk, cookies and chocolate. I would say the place was even nicer in reality than in the pictures. We would definitely return here if we were to stay in the area again.

Very comfortable stay.
My girlfriend and I had a lovely stay at the apple shed. The accommodation is clean and very comfortable. If was nice having the kitchen to make drinks and snacks though we ate out in places in the area. Lovely selection of breakfast items and treats left for us. We'd recommended a meal at La Campagne down the road, it was very nice. A lovely trip and we'd certainly stay again next time we're in the area.

The accommodation was really comfortable and we were able to enjoy a relaxing weekend. The location was ideal for Bath and other parts of the West Country that we wanted to visit. So different from a hotel and we would recommend it to anyone that is self-sufficient and happy with their own company. Thank you for a great weekend.

Lovely stay
Really lovely cosy property in a good location. Bed was very comfortable, great shower, really nice living area. Lovely place to just sit & relax. Breakfast/snack provisions were very good. We'd definitely recommend to others. My only grumble is that a 10 am check out is early, especially considering you're asked to strip the bed & gather the towels for laundry before you leave.

This is an amazing self contained house, well presented and clean. Many supplies given including blankets in lounge and breakfast supplies. Private areas to sit outside which are also very quiet and relaxing. Is a place you can easily see yourself living in permanently and only downside is when you have to leave. There is a great community shop near by or a co-op with petrol station not much further. Bath centre is also very close which has mixture of great shops and historic sites. You will not be disappointed, there is nothing the owners have forgotten or left out to make your stay the best it can be

Lovely stay, lovely place.
Lovely stay. The place was extremely clean, had everything you’d want and need and there were some lovely little touches like some local fresh bread and butter along with the usual eggs and milk etc. They even had a big bowl of sweets and share chocolate bar 😃 The bathroom was lovely and amazing shower with lots of nice baskets of towels and flannels. Was a really lovely place and we want to stay again. Big thumbs up 👍

The Beautiful Apple Shed
The Apple Shed is a stunning but cosy rural property which we stayed in during our mini break to Bath. Accommodation was immaculate throughout, fantastic wet room and kitchen facilities fully equipped for those wishing to self-cater and touches such as toiletries, Egyptian cotton towels and food treats upon our arrival definitely adds to the 5star rating I give. The hosts communication and organisation right from the booking was excellent including giving directions to the property. I would happily stay again and already recommended it to others.

Absolute gem!
This place is a great find. A really high quality property superbly finished. It has everything you could need for a self catering break and is ideally located almost equidistant between Bristol and Bath. The owners left us plenty of goodies in the kitchen too which really was the icing on the cake. We’ll happily come back here in the future and would recommend to anyone seeking a few days away in the area.
