It was a beautiful getaway, very comfortable, clean and cosy and perfect for what we needed. There were seven of us celebrating a 50th birthday, and the house was in a great location, being so near to Bath and lovely villages to explore. Thank you Chris and Lizzie, we loved it!

I would recommend the Park & Ride, if you fancy visiting Bath. I felt it was good value, and it runs regularly through the day, until about 8:30pm. The house was clean and well equipped, and in a nice, quiet village.
