The Stone Barn in Shepton Mallet offers a spacious and comfortable stay with underfloor heating and a well-equipped kitchen. Its peaceful surroundings and proximity to local attractions make it an ideal base for exploring Somerset. Guests have appreciated the welcoming touches and the property's potential, despite some concerns over cleanliness and maintenance.

Cleanliness

Several guests reported issues with cleanliness, including the need for a deep clean, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. There were mentions of grimy surfaces, mould, and cobwebs, which suggests room for improvement in this area.

Location

The location is praised for its peacefulness and convenience for local attractions and amenities. Some guests suggested better signage could help with finding the property, but overall, the location is well-regarded.

Comfort

Guests found the property spacious and the underfloor heating efficient, contributing to a comfortable stay. However, some guests mentioned issues with hot water temperature and bed comfort, slightly affecting the overall comfort score.

Facilities

The property is considered well-appointed with a good level of amenities, but some guests noted that certain facilities required maintenance or replacement, such as shower heads and kitchen equipment. The presence of en-suite bathrooms and a spacious kitchen are positives.

Thoughtfulness

Guests have mentioned a welcome pack and the helpfulness of the property managers, indicating a level of thoughtfulness. However, as not all reviews mention gifts, and to manage expectations, it should be noted that such extras are a pleasant addition but not guaranteed.

About this property

Situated in the picturesque Somerset village of Evercreech, this three bedroom stone barn conversion has been completely re-fitted to an extremely high standard for visitors to this lovely corner of the country. All on one floor, the open plan living area includes a kitchen-dining area with a large dining table across from the large sitting area, with a wall-mounted Smart TV that includes a DVD player and Freesat television. The sitting area includes comfortable modern seating, with a three-seater recliner sofa and three armchairs, each with its own matching footstool. Leading off of the open-plan area are the bedrooms, one twin bed with an en-suite finished to high standards, the other a king sized en-suite room . A third bedroom is located just inside the entrance, with a double bed and en-suite. The garden area is a private enclosed area partially lawned, including a patio area with comfortable wicker effect furniture, ideal for outdoor relaxation. The owners of the property are currently in the process of opening their own shop for selling local goods, but the barn is just a few streets from the village of Evercreech, where you can find all your essential amenities. Three miles further afield is the market village of Shepton Mallet, from where you can further explore the beauty of the Mendips. Ideal for experiencing the beauty of the Somerset hills, this is a superbly finished property ideal for a family break in the West Country.

The town of Shepton Mallet is a delightful mixture of old and new, with some wonderful old architecture and a weekly market, plus a variety of shops, pubs and eateries. Shepton Mallet is set in the Mendip foothills, and is at the geographical heart of the Mendip District. This is a beautiful landscape, with unique places to visit and activities for everyone. Shepton Mallet is home to the Royal Bath and West Showground; one of Britain's major agricultural shows is held here annually in May/June, and many other events are staged throughout the year.
