Warm friendly welcome, property and gardens full of character, super breakfast
United KingdomThe house itself is a lovely stone building, not far from the centre of Shepton Mallet. The room was large and airy, with a comfortable bed. Tea & coffee were provided and an excellent breakfast which gave a choice of continental or full English. The owners were very friendly and have everything was spotless and CV-19 compliant. I'll be back soon.
United KingdomThis Grade ll listed building is beautiful but with modern facilities. We stayed in the Bishop room having contacted them ahead of time to ask for room with high ceilings as my husband is so tall- this was sorted with ease. The owners are amazing and couldn’t help us more. The location is close to amenities and parking was easy. The room had plenty of sockets, a fridge, a power shower and a table and chairs to eat our breakfast (and the take away we got!)
United Kingdomgood sized room with all facilities possible .Very extensive breakfast too
United KingdomAs we had to leave early in the morning we were grateful to have a packed breakfast for later.
United KingdomI love staying at Longbridge house as it is like being part of a home away from home. From the warm greeting to the delicious breakfast in a large and homely kitchen, everything at Longbridge House helps me feel comfortable travelling alone.
United KingdomA beautiful, comfortable, immaculately clean period property. I arrived after a very long journey and was delighted with my large, thoughtfully decorated, cosy room. Old buildings can sometimes feel a bit dusty but both the room and bathroom were gleaming. Had a great night’s sleep in a very comfy bed with high quality bed linen. I was unsure what the breakfast setup would be like but imagine a huge country kitchen with a long dining table while a friendly landlady cooks you a delicious breakfast. I’m normally anti-social in the morning but couldn’t resist such a warm welcome. Staying at Longbridge House was a delight.
United KingdomVery convenient location, near town centre. Breakfast was excellent, a lot of choice and well cooked and presented. Very friendly hosts, and a warm, homely atmosphere.
United KingdomReally lovely cosy rooms. The owners are absolutely wonder
United KingdomThe spacious bedroom was very peaceful with a really comfy large bed and a stylish en-suite containing a lovely deep bath tub, great for a relaxing soak. Tanya was the perfect hostess as was Willow, one of her beautiful cats. Breakfast was excellent, several cereals, fruit juices and your choice of cooked breakfasts done in front of you as it is served in the kitchen diner. The high street is a short walk away with several cafes and restaurants to choose from (the Italian served a great meal). On street parking was free and not a problem to get a spot. Would definitely stay here again.

Legal information
Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
