A one bedroom self catering property in an idyllic valley setting.
The Shed is situated in the most beautiful valley with far reaching views. Good for walks, and relaxing. Wotton-under-Edge, Dursley and Tetbury all within a short driving distance. Lots of wonderful wildlife and farm animals nearby. The property consists of a sitting room, bathroom with over head shower over the bath, a small kitchen and a double bedroom. It is very cosy.
Please note The New Inn pub has now closed.
* Please note that access into the valley is on narrow lanes. The road is un even and so you will need to drive very slowly if in a low car. Our drive is also uneven so please drive slowly. You need to be made aware of these things before booking. Incidentally this is what makes The Shed so unique, is it's ruralness!
It is also important you follow the directions I send you as you need to avoid the "whiteway" road into the valley. *
We request that our guests strip the bed at the end of their stay and place sheets and towels in the basket provided, and make sure all their washing up has been washed in hot soapy water. All these things will keep us all safe.

It was one of the most breath taking country places to stay. To wake up and see this amazing view, so quiet and peaceful. We stayed for 3 nights and and ate breakfast and evening meals there as we wanted to make the most of the tranquil experience. A little tricky navigating the tiny roads at times but all part of the fun. The Shed is a lovely cost place to stay.
Questionable road quality leads you to a spectacular location. Property looks tired in places with paint flaking, window painted closed and stained toilet bowl along with black grout in places on the tiles around the bath. The kitchen mixer tap is not secure and has a taped note on the wall by way of apology for this. The microwave is on top of a small counter top fridge and was a bit daunting to use (we are not very tall). The fridge is shown in the booking pics but we didn't notice how small the fridge was. Normally we would have a full week of shopping delivered to where we are staying but changed our minds last minute thankfully. The host Antonia was lovely and welcoming on arrival and very quickly resolved an issue with the bottom sheet on the bed our first night which, Antonia assured us, was caused by her new steam iron.The replacement bedding was crisp and clean having just been bought the day after and put through the washing machine and ironed.
The lounge was very comfortable and was welcoming after a days out at The Forrest of Dean and Badminton Horse Trials. We witnessed some breath taking sunsets in the valley of Waterley Bottom where the property is located.

We were looking for a quiet getaway in the countryside, and this place was absolutely perfect. A lovely cosy place in a beautiful area, with a wonderful host!
Gorgeous place, in the most tranquil spot imaginable. It's truly beautiful.
Antonia is a fantastic host -
The property is immaculate!
It's perfect for a couple, and despite it's somewhat "off the beaten track" location, it's within short driving distances of towns and local attractions.
We're looking forward to heading back there soon
The Shed is a fabulous property in a perfect location for getting away from it all. Views were brilliant particularly at sunset. The property was clean and had everything we needed. The milk and cakes were an extra lovely treat.
Great little property, just right for the two of us and our dogs. The scenery us amazing, and the location perfect. The driveway could be a struggle for a small/sports car, and the surrounding lanes not for the fainthearted!
The location of the property was amazing . Very peaceful with some beautiful walks. The property was lovely and had everything that we needed. The cake and groceries were a very kind gesture. Antonia was lovely . Would definitely love to come back .
The Shed was all we asked for it is clean, tidy, the bed is comfy and it was so relaxing just the sounds of nature (birds,sheep) It has amazing sunsets and lovely views. The location is ideal to either stay in with lovely walks on the door step in the surrounding area or go a bit further to explore this gorgeous Cotswold area. It is very dog friendly our two dogs loved playing outside the Shed. The host (Antonia) was very helpful not only with directions which were spot on but was not intrusive but helpful with suggestions. A nice welcome pack on arrival. All in all a great relaxing time spent here would definitely come again.

My overall experience from initial booking to leaving was 5 star. The communication with Antonia was brilliant as was a welcome pack with bread, milk, butter and jam plus cake!
The property was lovely and spacious with everything you need.
It was wonderful just being able to relax in secluded countryside with wildlife around.
There were deer spotted several times plus so many birds. The farm animals cattle and sheep in adjacent fields too.
There are plenty of public footways to explore nearby and some pubs. (Although one was shut)
I didn't drive whilst there but there are plenty of places to visit if walking is not for you.
I really hope to return to this place as it surpassed all my expectations.
Great "Getaway" spot. Peace & quiet. Very sweet & nicely presented. Some interesting lanes to get in & out but contributed to the feeling of getting away from the rat race. Hosts very accommodating.
Probably the nicest shed we'll ever stay in! Set in a gorgeous valley and very peaceful, we loved this place and although we only stayed one night, we felt very relaxed and like we'd been on a retreat the next day! There was plenty of tea and some home-made cake waiting for us upon arrival too, which was very welcome. Definitely recommend and we hope to stay again sometime! Thanks Antonia!
We recently spent the Christmas weekend at this beautiful property. From the very beginning, communication was great, with very clear travel instructions and everything was just perfect for our stay. The kitchen had everything we needed, the bed is so comfy and it was lovely and warm.
Beautiful setting, with lovely walks on the doorstep.
The Shed was absolutely perfect for our stay with Remy our Jack Russell. Beautiful countryside and a long way from any fireworks.
Antonia had thoughtfully left us some provisions and homemade cake to make our stay even more comfortable and we would recommend her to anyone.
We had a wonderful stay at the Shed, the property is beautiful, Antonia is an excellent host, and the area is very relaxing with great walks to go for.
Just got back from five days staying at The Shed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in fantastic accommodation set within beautiful and peaceful surroundings. Would definitely recommend this property.
