Plenty of room to park, the little garden was a sun trap where we enjoyed breakfast, on the first night a very good curry from over the road was welcome and a handy shop or two in walking distance. Nice, quiet and restful stay. The owners of this property couldn't have done more to make us feel welcome and we can recommend them any time

We thoroughly enjoyed our break away. The Old Cart Shed is very well equipped and maintained. The owners are always on hand should you need anything. We appreciated the little touches and treats left for both us and our dog! The location and local amenities were excellent and there are lots of places nearby for dog walking. Also easy to get to places of interest a bit further afield. We will definitely be returning!

Used as a central to Wiltshire as we were visiting the ancient sites. Had absolutely everything we needed. Had it's own we garden with table, chairs and a parasol was in the cupboard if needed. Would highly recommend staying here for a couple. King-size bead which was great.
