We stayed in Shepton Mallet instead of Bath as it's half the price and much quieter. It's a good place to stay as it's central so places like Wells and Bath are easy to get to. Totally recommend Bowlish House as a place to stay there, very quiet and only 2 minutes walk into the centre.
We were told about a pub called the dusthole a few minutes walk from our accommodation, we found it and liked it a traditional style pub with good pub grub and a good selection of drinks. We really enjoyed the carnival which we attend every year but vary our location to keep it interesting, would like to visit Shepton mallet again at some point for the carnival as we found it easy to get around.
Absolute heaven- everything I love. Local ale and food, non corporate, great music and traditional pub. Loved the old furniture in room- loved that you could actually open the window. Felt private and secluded but with fab food, drink and company at the bottom of the stairs. Best breakfast I have ever tasted.
Didn't get chance to explore Shelton Mallet as we arrived late due to an incident on the motorway and had to leave early the next morning. It looked like a place I would like to explore and will return again at some time
Shepton Mallet is a great place to stay It has a quaint shopping centre and interesting attractions. It is also a great place to stay as a base to visit other surrounding attractions i.e Glastonbury Tor, Wookey Hole and Clark's Village plus much much more.
Shepton Mallet has a high street with plenty of coffee shops and interesting independent shops including a few charity shops. There is a prison which closed in 2013 but is open to the public at a charge. We enjoyed the walk to and looking around Kilver court retail centre . We ate at whitstons fish and chip restaurant which was lovely. We also had a lovely meal at the Dust hole. We drank in the Bell inn where we were welcomed by the friendly landlord Micky and locals . Shepton Mallett is very easy to walk around ,with some really old buildings to see on route. There are also lots of places to visit by car like Wells with its beautiful cathedral and buildings, Cheddar gorge, Haynes motor museum , Clarke village and much more .
“Pleasant owner but under pressure. Village pub friendly locals. Reasonable meal good chips but low quality breakfast apart from bacon. Room clean beds comfortable but very tired decor. Relatively cheap for area.”
“Cute cottage like feel. Staff friendly and helpful. Rooms were comfortable and had everything you would want, tv, towels, tea/coffee facilities, wardrobe space. Although we didn't have evening meal at the hotel breakfast was included in the price and it was great. Tailor made to your liking, full fry, beans on toast, yogurt, juices, cereal. Very much enjoyed our stay and would be happy to return when visiting the area again. ”
“Beautiful building, fantastic room and a wonderful host. This b&b is more like a top class hotel”
“The location was excellent for the shops, pubs and restaurants. The cottage was very quiet, especially at night. The bed was super confortable. There was everything that we needed to cook a simple meal. The cottage garden was very pretty. The cottage gave us the indepence we wanted for your visit to Shepton Mallet. Excellent value for money.”
“Stunning retreat. A little magical, peaceful and tranquil retreat with all the creature comforts thrown in. Just what I needed to rewind, rest, recharge and rejuvenate. Gillian and her daughter were the perfect hosts. Just perfect and will definitely be returning. Ideally situated close enough to all the delights of Shepton Mallet and surrounding area but far enough out for the peace and quiet. 100% recommended. Thank you.”
