Guest rooms in the inn are fitted with a kettle. With a private bathroom equipped with a shower and free toiletries, rooms at Sign of the Angel also offer free WiFi, while selected rooms come with a garden view. At the accommodation each room is fitted with bed linen and towels.

It was like stepping back in time. The inn dates from 1480 and retains its character. The village is wonderful and, as a heritage location , it remains as it was hundreds of years ago. It is the quintessential english village!

With picturesque gardens and a dining terrace, this charming 16th-century property is set in 1.5 acres of Wiltshire countryside. Free WiFi and free private parking are offered.

An en suite bathroom and a flat-screen TV are featured in each room at The Tollgate Inn.

The inn is so charming with lovely gardens and a warm homey feel in our room as well as the restaurant/pub. Breakfast was delicious as were the meat pies and all the meals the chef prepared for us. Everyone, especially Carly, Brandon and Layla were happy to help us with anything we asked. Thank you all for a perfect first trip to the English countryside!

A traditional 18th-century country inn, the uniquely named Lion and Fiddle is situated in the village of Hilperton. With a bar and restaurant, it is only a 5-minute drive from Trowbridge town centre and train station, which has services to Bath.

Breakfast was good , unfortunately the road into the village was closed, 2 mile detour each time , at least that won’t be there for long .

Situated in Bradford on Avon, 11 km from University of Bath, The George features accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant. This 4-star inn features free WiFi and a bar. The property is non-smoking and is located 13 km from Bath Spa Train Station.

What a lovely place! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The people and the service are amazing, 10+ out of 10. Not only did they help get our luggage up the stairs, they found umbrellas for us to use on our outings and were there at every turn for anything we might need. The bar staff are super friendly and the cook was amazing. Breakfast is the best I've had, and there were several menu items to choose from. We stayed in the small apartment and really enjoyed having a separate area to watch TV and relax. All in all, we loved our stay here. We would like to return again some day and spend more time with these wonderful people. They truly are the best! ❤️

On the banks of the River Avon, Timbrell's Yard is a 15-minute drive from historical Bath. A Grade II building recently refurbished, guests can relax in the leafy gardens, or enjoy home-cooked meals in the traditional restaurant.

Location - very central. Beautiful accomodation - lovely fitout. Friendly staff. Parking right next door (free from 6pm-8pm) which can be difficult in the centre of some of these old towns. Plenty of hanging space.
