A lovely small cottage near Bath City centre

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.

Perfect break in Bath

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.
