This house is ideally suited to families or mature groups of people looking for a sociable get together, but who are respectful and considerate of our neighbours.

Please note the following if you are considering booking this property:

- Guests must come inside the property by 10.30pm
- No additional guests to visit unless by prior arrangement
- Security camera and video doorbell installed

If you or any of your group are looking for long noisy nights in the hot tub or anywhere outside, we respectfully ask that you consider elsewhere. If you are respectful people who are happy to carry on with your socialising inside after 10.30pm, then this is most definitely the place for you!

Please also note that this property is only available for 4 nights or more during the weekdays. We cannot set this up on VRBO so sadly we have to monitor bookings and regretfully decline any weekday bookings that are not for 4 days or more

THE DETAIL:
A spacious well laid out home with a great open living space which includes the kitchen, lounge and dining area.

As we are keen cooks, the kitchen is very well-equipped. It has a large fridge freezer, dishwasher, double oven, gas hob, microwave and a quality 'bean to cup' coffee machine. In addition there are many more kitchen tools, you will not need anything else while you stay at this house! (Even though Bath has the most amazing restaurants, you might just be tempted to cook an occasional gourmet meal at home :)

The kitchen area has a breakfast bar with three stools and an area to set up a laptop with an additional stool, making this a great 'planning' area for the day ahead. Our home is well-equipped for today's technology with hi speed internet access, USB sockets and ethernet connections in every room. Our broadband is powered by fast 'fibre to the premise' (FTTP) technology.

There is a separate utility room with an additional fridge/freezer, washing machine and tumble drier, which you are welcome to use (there will always be plenty of washing powder provided).

The ground floor also includes a separate 'den' equipped with TV, games consoles and DVD player. This room also has a very comfortable double sofa bed, with deep memory foam mattress, which can be used occasionally if required - for booked guests only, not for extra guests. (Please let us know if you need to use it and we can make sure that bedding is available).

There is a toilet and washbasin on the ground floor.

There are four large bedrooms in our home.

There is a king-sized bed and en-suite shower room in the master bedroom. This is on the top (attic) floor.

On the middle floor there is a king bed in bedroom 2. There is a king bed in bedroom 3 and this bedroom also has an en-suite shower room, which can convert to another family shower room by means of a 'Jack and Jill' door.

Finally there are twin (adult sized) single beds in bedroom 4.

There is an additional separate luxury main family bathroom with large walk-in shower, stand-alone bath and stunning mood lighting . This room has amazing views over open countryside, and blinds for privacy.

The private garden has a high quality hot tub which can seat up to 7 people. There is a lovely patio with a large table ideal for outdoor dining and also four comfortable lounge-style chairs and coffee table under a fixed gazebo. The garden has some lovely ambient lighting to make sitting out in the evening really special. There is also a quality Webber barbeque, ideal for outdoor entertaining and we will make barbeque charcoal available for you if you need it.

The garden has a rural aspect across a field which leads up to the Bath "Skyline Walk". We often see local wildlife in the field such as deer, badgers and foxes.

The front of the house has stunning views across the beautiful Georgian city of Bath.

To the front of the property is off road parking for three cars. We can also provide permits for parking on the road if needed, meaning you can enjoy free parking for plenty of cars - a real bonus in Bath!

The property is located in a quiet cul-de-sac.

Best Rental Property Ever!

The house was spotless and so well equipped. We were challenging each other to think of things that were not in the house! We could think of nothing 🙂 The owner met us at the property, which was very nice. I had contact with the owners whilst we were there as they had heard the water pressure in the area had been affected. Such lovely people to deal with. We didn’t have an issues but I’m sure they would have been sorted as soon as possible. We had basic supplies in the fridge on our arrival. I fact, it was more than basic supplies. The bathrooms all had shampoo and shower gel in them. We didn’t need to take anything with us! I fully recommend this house if you want to stay near to Bath.

Exceptional!

We have just come back from a family celebration- 60th and 1st birthdays at Sally and Andrew’s house. The house is a fabulous family entertaining space. Light, open plan and airy with an extensive range of kitchen appliances, bean to coffee machine and very well stocked cupboards and fridge, all for our use. We were overwhelmed by the generosity of Sally and Andrew. It felt as if we had been invited into their personal home. Everything was thought through to perfection. Extensive mood and fairy lights, washing powder for the machine, books, blankets and even dog treats. The house itself was immaculately clean, bed linen soft, white and luxurious and an abundance of toiletries to use. The sauna on the first floor was well used and Sally ensured we had a large supply of fluffy white towels to see us through the week. The views across Bath from the front of the house were spectacular. The outside space was perfect for 2 toddlers, 6 adults and the dogs. The hot tub with the fairy lights and outdoor heater ensured our family evenings were cosy and fun. The garden was very private and enclosed with great views out towards open fields. Sally is the most prompt and helpful host I have ever encountered. Speedy, thoughtful replies and a recommendation to The Bathwick Boatman for my 60th lunch which was perfect. Thank you so much Sally and Andrew for making my 60th and granddaughters 1st birthday so magical. We cannot recommend this house highly enough.

Amazing Stay to celebrate turning 50 with friends

This house is wonderful and the host Sally has thought of everything. Really high spec throughout and everything you could need for your stay is there. The hot tub is lovely and outdoor space perfect for groups or families. So close to Bath town centre. The host communicates immediately and is extremely helpful. It is a luxury experience from start to finish. We will be back!

A guesthouse you won’t want to leave.

This lovely guesthouse (my family called it the Bath Palace) is huge, beautiful, spotlessly clean and strategically located within an easy walk to everything in Bath. We were with 8 minutes walk to Sydney gardens and 15 minutes to Great Pulteney. On this trip we lived a life of luxury. There was every appliance in the kitchen one could possibly need, and a few that I may now need to acquire. There were even espresso machines with the choice of decaf and regular Italian coffee beans. Sally has instructions for the use of absolutely everything until we were never at a loss of how to make something work. She was extremely helpful at showing us around and was responsive when we needed some assistance dealing with a mysterious beeping (water softener- sorted within minutes). We were a group of six, and there was plenty of room for us, with room to spare and space for each of us to escape each other for a while. There were multiple televisions, so nobody had to compromise on what to watch in the evenings. The garden is gorgeous, and we were able to enjoy the beautiful weather. We did not get to take advantage of what looks to be a beautiful walking path up the hillside to an overlook- because we spent most of our time in town. The hot tub was an excellent source of relaxation at the end of a long day of walking. The beds were extremely comfortable. The linen high end and luxurious. This was a vacation to remember and we would love to come back!

Generous and informative hosts

The detailed information provided by the hosts both in the house (notes on the use of every appliance, sauna, hot tub, even electric charging point etc.) which saved so much time and concern, and about Bath (from dining to avoiding the bridge) made this a very stress free stay. The house has a lovely outlook to fields with curious cows - great view from hot tub. The generous hosts opened their lovely home so we felt like friends rather than guests. Our family consisted of 3 generations, 3 nationalities, 5 adults and one teenager. We were all happy with the roomy accommodation, comfortable beds and cleanliness of the property and our teenager loved the tub in the family bathroom. We all enjoyed our stay.

We had such an enjoyable week in Bath. The owners were so helpful and welcoming. The house has beautiful views over bath and the situation is perfect. The accommodation is very well equipped - everything that we could possibly need was there. The facilities were enjoyed by us all - including our dog! Thoroughly recommend this property

A true home away from home

Sally and Andrew’s house is a beautiful and cozy property, located in a lovely neighbourhood within a 15min walk to the city centre. This is the best property we have all ever stayed at. There’s everything you need and more, the kitchen is really well equipped and spacious, there’s a lovely terrace and the hot tub is perfect. Even our dog had everything he needed to feel at home. Me and my friends can’t wait to go back!
