About The Horseshoe Inn

A proper bar sits at the heart of The Horseshoe Inn, giving this Shepton Mallet pub-hotel the feel of a traditional local rather than a standard hotel stay. It's an adults-only property in Bowlish, on the edge of Shepton Mallet, so the pace is quiet and geared towards those wanting a relaxed break in the Somerset countryside.

Rooms are en-suite and come with drinks available to take up with you, plus free WiFi and 24 hour reception for whenever you arrive. Several rooms look out over the garden, adding a bit of green to the view. The bar downstairs anchors the whole place, and with a restaurant and other pubs and eateries nearby, there's no shortage of places to eat within easy reach.

Outside, the surrounding area suits walkers and cyclists, with routes to explore on foot or by bike, while golf and fishing are both available nearby for those wanting a more active day out. In the evenings, there's local entertainment on offer too, making it easy to fill a stay without needing to travel far from Bowlish itself.
