A delightful, beautifully situated, spacious and well-equipped conversion with very helpful estate staff on hand to help with any problems
The Potting Shed is by far the best cottage we have stayed in, having stayed in many cottages nationwide over the last twenty years. Beautifully clean and contemporary accommodation in a perfect setting. We would highly recommend.
A beautiful location with superb accommodation. The Potting Shed was spotlessly clean with everything you could need, including a great hamper. The views were really lovely and we had such a relaxing time. It was just so peaceful, with so many fantastic walks on the doorstep, plus a lovely bistro and coffee shop just five minutes’ walk away! We would definitely like to go back.
We have stayed in the Potting Shed and the Gardener's Bothy several times and have thoroughly enjoyed every visit. The Potting Shed this time was as lovely as ever. We were pleased to find new curtains by the entrance doors which are a wonderful addition! Thank you Weston Park, we will be returning soon!
Fabulous cottage - so lovely to be able to walk freely in the park
Set in a beautiful location, the property is well appointed and of a high standard. There was a problem with the television aerial, but we were kept informed of what was happening and it was fixed as soon as was reasonably possible. We were unable to locate the cutlery drawer and a clearer indication of where to find it would have been useful as it was not obvious until we had spoken to staff during the second day of our stay! The Bistro has excellent, friendly staff and good food and the walks around the grounds are stunning.
Comfortable beautifully furnished cottage. Great hamper on arrival. Having access to Weston Park every day was a bonus. There is no much to see in the local area that one visit is not enough.
This is our second time at the Potting shed. We last stayed there 6 years ago. It was as beautiful as the last time. The property is perfect in every way, clean contemporary styling and all the creature comforts any one could wish for. The Granary Brasserie is an added bonus which is a few minutes walk away.
A superb cottage in a lovely setting.
Lovely cottage, very clean, very quiet and we loved walking around the esate whilst it was closed. A peaceful and relaxing stay.
We have stayed previously in 2017 and a couple of issues still are outstanding as mentioned by several people in the visitors book. Otherwise it would have been 5 stars. One we consider to be dangerous The wooden privacy door screens. I have mobility issues and when alone in the Potting Shed found them difficult and unsafe to move - easily able to topple ( 5 broken hinges) and cause a serious injury.Even my husband found them unwieldy and cumbersome. The underfloor heating in the very large bathroom was not switched on but was eventually sorted, however it does not remain on and the bathroom is very cold without it, pulling in a draught to the open ended shower. That being said the place is prisitine and lovely to stay in. The grounds are a bonus and well kept. Just a note to say that the Deli is no longer in the grounds and we feel this is such a shame because it was very handy for picking up fresh goods and we missed its coffee shop area too, so bring back the Deli and its coffee shop!! Using the Granary Brasserie for breakfasts and as a coffee area doesn't work. Kind Regards
A lovely park to wander round and a super apartment to return to
Another wonderful visit to the potting shed. The facilities are brilliant, the location perfect and furnishings beautiful. Access to the estate is a bonus. The granary is also a great place to eat. Will definitely be back again, it’s our favourite place to stay. (Although checking what events are on should be taken into consideration. We left a day early because of the motor rally noise)
Super cottage, lots of space and very stylish. The grounds are lovely, so beautifully maintained! Light and airy Granary Restaurant, serving good food. The staff are friendly, professional and very helpful. A very relaxing, tranquil and welcoming place to stay.
Very well equipped property, spacious and in a lovely setting.
We have stayed in Weston Park on a number of occasions and this was our first time to the Potting Shed. It was the perfect place to celebrate my husband's birthday. We loved the thoughtful way the Potting Shed had been decorated. I am very pleased that we ordered a meal for our first night. We had two lunch visits to the Granary Grill, good food and service. Ideal base for exploring the area and we loved walking our estate and visiting the main house. I am sure we will be returning.
Superb ambience and quality of accommodation, friendly and helpful staff.
Fantastic accommodation in a great location. spacious and beautifully decorated. great welcome pack of food. loved being able to walk round the park & to the restaurant, so didn’t drive all weekend. relaxing terrace is a sun trap - a sunshade would be the only improvement I would suggest.
Excellent accommodation - the best potting shed we have even stayed in! Wonderful walks in the park land.
Excellent property with a quality interior. House and gardens were a joy to walk around and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
