Super location for Bath and Bristol and lovely local area. We were spoilt with the weather and so the garden was a god send- the kids had a blast. Plenty of bedding and towels for all of us and the house met all our basic needs.
A fantastic and cozy little getaway, a quick and easy trip into the centre of Bath as well, everything as expected and would recommend!
Very nice stay, great outdoor area, accommodating hosts. Overall lovely time away
Such a lovely house with so much character. The gardens were beautiful, beds comfy and rooms beautifully decorated. I loved my stay here and would come again
Brilliant communication, stunning and beautiful property. Lots of warm gestures by wonderful host!
