    The hoasts were both dimonds, really kind and went above and beyond. People who you'd look upto with ethics and kindness.

    A little piece of Paradise

    The Potting Shed is a little piece of Paradise, set in the most tranquil location. It was raining most of the time but that didn't matter. The gardens are beautiful and a photographer's delight, despite the rain. Matthew and Karin are the kindest hosts and made us feel very welcome. They are lovely to talk with. The room is beautifully equipped with everything you could need and with little kind touches. Everywhere was exceptionally clean. There is a lovely collection of books to browse through and desk to write at too, which as a writer, I thoroughly loved. Breakfast was superb, with candlelight, on a dull, rainy day. The Scrambled eggs and homegrown tomatoes were so lovely and the coffee was just the best. I am looking forward to visiting again soon, next time for longer. If you're looking for a quiet, perfect place, with wonderful hosts, then The Potting Shed is definitely for you.

    There is nothing we didn't like. It really is a little piece of Paradise in a noisy world.

    Superb

    Lovely, welcoming hosts and the delicious, beautifully presented breakfast in the idyllic, quintessentially English Gardens.

    Nothing it was a perfect, comfortable relaxing weekend.
