    Room itself is a bit small

    Great place and although located in small village, there are a lot of facilities nearby. Excellent place to make dayrips to Bath, Bristol and Glastonbury

    This historial building is lovely maintained. The sweet smell of roses captures your mind even before you step into the garden. We have a very enjoyable stay. The host is very friendly and helpful and guide us around. Very glad to see that an old building has been put back to life and in good use. Freshly cooked breadfast with lots of choices.

    Just comments, not criticisms: bed too short for tall husband, so wife had to sleep on the settee (it was very comfortable, so no problems, no suggestion that places should cater for people's height!). The bathroom could do with a chair/ stool to put clothing on rather than having to put it on the toilet. All very minor.

    Self catering : very clean, comfortable, really nice facilities (bathroom, kitchen), plenty of parking, very nice shower! We were made to feel very welcome. Milk in the fridge, some tea and coffee. Location good, co-op very close, petrol station close. Plenty to do and see in the area. We had a very nice stay.

    An extraordinary and so beautiful place! You feel the harmony you are surrounded by several majestical buildings and it´s just lovely! Super comfortable beds and bed linen, so clean everywhere and you really feel you live in a small piteresque village that you usually only see in movies. The owners were super nice and informative!

    Nothing. Perfect from arrival to departure.

    We have stayed before some time ago and the were returning for a wedding locally. We were met by James the owner who was charming and friendly . The hotel is a period built house and has the characteristics of a stately home. Beautiful paintings, period furniture grand fireplaces. All in all a very welcoming ambience. The room was superbly appointed with views to the well kept gardens. A wonderfully comfortable four poster bed awaited and a delightful ensuite completed the room. The bed was comfortable and the pillows just right. Breakfast was served the next morning and everything one could possibly require was available. Croissants, yogurt, cereals, cooked breakfast, vegan etc were all on offer. The dining room and food was exceptional. All in all an excellent stay and we will most definitely be returning very soon. By far the best hotel we have stayed in recently and we travel a lot. A massive thanks to James for saving the day with Green ribbon...the wedding was superb

    Nothing at all!

    I don't usually make reviews but this property was truly exceptional! Our welcome was relaxed but professional, informative and with a thorough explanation of the property, room facilities and arrangements for breakfast. We were able to choose our breakfast time and the system in place to organise dining room space made breakfast a peaceful and lovely experience- we felt very spoiled!! Breakfast itself was huge with a wonderful comprehensive array of foods which were beautifully presented- pastries and breads etc were presented like an afternoon tea! There were very high end jams, honey and soft fruits etc... cooked breakfast was cooked to order and again a very high standard. Itself The property has been carefully and lovingly restored with its history and character in mind. Our host gave us a fascinating history of the house and had gone to the trouble of having resources in the sitting room for further reading if interested (and the history was very interesting!). There was a thoughtful honesty box which we didn’t use but thought was a lovely touch. Attention to detail from the communal rooms to the bedroom (ours was the George room) and bathroom were fabulous. Our host when asked gave us really useful advice on the local pubs/places to eat and was spot on with the recommendations.. we came away for some time somewhere a little bit special and this property was absolutely definitely that and more!!! Do not hesitate.. book…This is an absolute gem! Thank you for making our trip such a special one!

    Beautiful building and garden. The furniture & decoration is very traditional and comfortable. Breakfast was superb. Freshly cooked full English on top of fruit, yoghurts, cereals, croissants, pastries and toast. Our host was very friendly and full of useful information and of course Fergus the dog was adorable

    Very old property, 1700's so the plumbing was extremely noisy, but this was no fault of the owners.

    Breakfast was exceptional, high quality & delicious. The little extras & attention to detail was superb. Probably our best ever breakfast in a B&B & we have tried a few! Very comfortable bed, Smart TV & free off road parking which is always a bonus.

    Breakfast was some little boxes of cereal and milk. But I imagine this was because I was staying in the annexe rather than the house.

    Only a slight improvement could be a new mattress as it was rather soft for us. Otherwise perfect.

    Phil was very welcoming and friendly from the moment we arrived. He carried our bags up to the room for us and explained the facilities. The room was very pretty, clean and plenty of tea and coffee etc. The four poster bed was a lovely addition. The breakfast was excellent, everything you could want. Will definitely be back next year to discover more of the lovely city of Bath.
