We throughly enjoyed staying at this property, it is picturesque, the owners Ruth and Rory are lovely friendly people. Our brekky was so nice, homemade bread, cooked over night, the best. Lovely fire at night. The bed was so comfy. Overall a lovely experience.

A Great place to stay in Bridgetown
As part of my job, I stay in many establishments but Shambhala would have to be one of the best. Everything is clean and very tidy with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Rory and Ruth were very attentive and couldn't do enough to make my stay enjoyable. If you are staying in Bridgetown for a few days, I would recommend you give them a call.

Shambhala was a wonderful place to take a few days off the world and relax. Wish we had booked a few more days. The hosts are warm and inviting. You are high up on a hill top and the morning mist was magical as it slowly disappeared. Not hearing any traffic or suburbia and only birds chirping away was music to our ears. The breakfast, homemade, fresh bread daily is delicious. An array of jams, just yummy! The hosts are friendly and as warm as the homely blazing log fire. We give you 10/10 and more. Thank you Rory, Ruth and Heather for your kindness.

From the moment we walked through the door we felt welcome and that nothing was too much trouble. The hosts have thought about all the little things that provide comfort. The rooms are spacious and very clean, the shared areas most comfortable and the breakfast most adequate. The property sits on a hill overlooking magnificent countryside. Highly recommend!

Peace and quiet awaits
Shambala House is a wonderful place to get away from city life and enjoy peace and quiet in nature. The guest room we had, had a balcony where we could sit outside and take in the view where the sun set over hills, and the backyard full of trees, flowers and garden. A very peaceful place for sure. The breakfast was nice with a variety of tea and coffee, cereal, bread, jams and spreads and hot brekky for a bit extra. Rory and Rita were friendly folk, easy to talk to.

The property is beautiful, clean and immaculately presented. The rooms are large and the bed was very comfortable. The location is outstanding, allowing expansive views over the rolling hills and valleys. Just out of town enough to feel isolated and yet close enough to access when needed. The owners, Ruth and Rory, are just lovely. They cant do enough for you. The breakfast was delicious, with warm, soft, freshly baked bread, locally sourced jams and fresh juice. I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area. I’ll be back.
