Sheppard's Hotel Restaurant & Bistro Review

This is one of the most affordable choices in the area for both food and lodging. The late James Herriot treated his last horse on these premises; now the Sheppard family has turned the complex into one of the finest lodging choices in the area. Operating out of an old stable block and granary (now restaurant and bistro, with well-furnished bedrooms overhead), a country atmosphere prevails, and the decor often includes nailed horse brasses on the beams. Many guests request the "fat bedroom," so named because of its oversize double bed. The private bathrooms are small, with shower stalls. Otherwise, corridor bathrooms are adequate for those who must share. All the buildings in the complex are grouped around a cobbled courtyard.

Facilities:
Restaurant, bar

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
