Spoilt by pet hair
The Potting Shed was quirky. Sofas not very comfy and had pet hair on them. Pet hair also on floir and on and under coffee table. I found this unacceptable as I wiuld if there were a lot of human hair around.

Just a little weekend away
We arrived at the Potting shed ready to start our mini break and we were not disappointed. We had some lovely welcome gifts. The property is situated near the woolpack (highly recommended) and the property had maps for walks we could do. It isn’t far from the beach by car either and we found the dog friendly part and had a lovely morning. We will be back!

The potting shed Sopley
The property was excellent for one person but, in particular, the bed was on the small side for more than one. The location was not brilliant being very close to a very busy minor road.

Great location and brilliant for cyclists!
We have just returned home from a 3 night stay at The Potting Shed. Communication with Laura from start to finish has been excellent. Nice set up with everything conveniently located on the ground floor. [We did not use the art room upstairs ]. Lots of cycling routes nearby and best of all, at least 3 pubs within walking distance. The Woolpack, just across the road was the best meal. Only a 10 minute drive to the beach and what a beach! Bigger garden than expected and nice to get the car off the road and make use of the excellent bike storage. Many thanks Sarah & Richard

New Forest escape
The potting shed was nicely presented, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The hosts were friendly and responsive and the area is really nice too with a great pub and lots of country walks close by. Will book again next time we are in the area :)
