We received a warm welcome & arrived to find a cosy, well equipped cottage. Super easy to hop on a bus into town. Loads of information on things to do & places to see. Our host Liz really went above & beyond to make sure that we had a lovely, super dog friendly break. Highly recommended, on all counts.

The cottage was a lovely small property behind a succesful B&B, on one of the major trunk roads of Bath. The cottage was clean, modern and comfortable. Public transport into bath city centre was regular, and the cottage was near the start of several countryside walks. Overall I would highly reccomend staying.

Just had a perfect little stay in Bath. The fact that we could park up and leave our car for the duration of our stay was great. Just a 15min walk to the city. Such a good location. The cottage is so cute, perfect for 2 and very well equipped with what we needed. The lady looking after it was super friendly. A perfect 20th wedding anniversary break.

Lovely compact cottage with everything provided. Louise is a perfect host. We enjoyed walking into Bath and using the excellent regular bus service back (be careful you find the right bus stop outside the bus station in front of the river Avon where buses turn into the station). Make sure you visit the unique Thermae baths. Close enough to walk to the Tesco Express.

This is a lovely little coach house behind a B&B a few minutes outside Bath. Louise and Chris (hosts) were very attentive, the apartment was spotlessly clean and had everything we could need. Chris gave us a couple of coupons and let us know the best things to see/do in Bath, which included a fabulous free walk around the city. Bath is lovely and we enjoyed everything about our weekend stay. Highly recommend!

This was a perfect base for our weekend exploring Bath. The cottage is very small, but cosy and well equipped. It is within walking distance of Bath centre and we enjoyed a nice scenic walk in to town. There was a Tesco express 2 minutes down the road which was very handy. The hosts were very friendly and gave us a warm welcome.

The cottage is small but adequate and the layout is abit strange with the toilet being upstairs via the bedroom, and the shower room via the lounge/kitchen, if sharing with non family members this can be awkward, hence why not many pictures. My husband is over 6 foot and he found the bedroom in the eves not good for his head and spriral staircase tricky. It is further than a 10 minute walk to town, I'd say 20-30mins, but its a pleasant walk downhill.
4.0 / 5.0
This clean picturesque cottage was our home for the month of August and it was the perfect location for us to explore both the city and the surrounding countryside.
Information was available for us to plan our adventures.
Our hosts Chris and Louise made us welcome and offered any help we needed to make our stay pleasant. The circular staircase to the loft/bedroom area could be a little tough for less mobile guests.
Good grocery shopping is a twenty minute walk away - with a bus ride back!
There are good restaurants aplenty that will suit all tastes. Jamie's Italian was fun and good food. Lunch in the Pump Room is a must.
The race course gave us a chance to watch and bet with some success.
We would without a doubt, recommend this rental property to our friends.
