“Superb Self Catering Accomodation in Bath”
I travelled with three friends. The apartment was ideal for us. Superbly equipped right down to a decorated Christmas tree in the lounge (We actually visited Bath for the Christmas Markets) . We can definately recommend it. Would be less ideal for anyone having trouble climbing steps and stairs however.

“Beautiful apartment , easy to arrange the stay.”
Bath View Apartment is a beautifully designed apartment in the upstairs of a lovely Bath Town House. It had all the mod cons you would expect from a fancy hotel but with the added convenience of communal areas and kitchen facilities. Organising the trip was very straightforward - all done via e-mail with no hitches and everyone had a great time. The walk up to the apartment from the train station is uphill but you do get a good view once you get there.
Myself and a small group of 5 friends go away every six months to different places for a break and a couple of nights out. This apartment has the absolute WOW factor! It offers everything you could possibly need when you are away from home and MORE. Everything is finished to the highest standard and you can tell a lot of time and effort has gone in to making this (in my opinion) one of the nicest places to stay in Bath. The place is full of surprises and nice little touches that make it stand out from anywhere else, nice big TV with big selection of Dvd's, I-Pod stereo, Two amazing bathrooms, fully equipped beautiful Kitchen, Under floor Heating... the list goes on. The location is great too, you can walk into town which is 5-10 minutes away or grab a taxi if you are feeling lazy for less than a fiver. I've been to lots and lots of TOP places but can hand on heart say Bath View Apartments is going to be extremely hard to beat. Jette is very friendly, helpful and a pleasure to meet. Thanks again for a top weekend and we will definitely be seeing you again soon. Best regards, Chris + Mates :)

“Perfect apartment - everything was thought of!”
Perfect girly weekend in Bath! The apartment was fabulous, all the rooms are very stylish. Just a short walk into the town centre, but enough away to enjoy the views of Bath. Loved it!

“An apartment befitting the beauty of Bath”
Everything about this apartment feels relaxed and inviting. We were looking forward to seeing it first-hand from the pictures posted advertising the location, and it didn't disappoint.
Directions to the apartment from however you arrive in Bath are provided beforehand and are easy to follow. A pre-arranged access code is provided so there is no need to mess with keys, and the owners are both available when needed and invisible when not.
There are local shops to get your groceries and a parking space provided should you choose to use a car during your stay (as we did). Bath centre is a pleasant short 10 minute stroll downhill, and a more taxing 20 minute walk back uphill. But that's Bath geography - the apartment is ideally situated just outside the city centre proper.
The place is clean, quiet and modern with a heated floor in the bathroom. Standard of furnishings is top notch and we had no trouble finding all the utensils as we needed them. We are a five member family and found this an ideal size for all of us. NOTE - our youngest is 6 years old and is OK around stairs, if you have very young children I would not recommend this property and neither would the owners as access is up around 20 steps. Owners are charming & eco-conscious, so recycling is provided wherever possible.
Would thoroughly recommend this property to a family of 5 or less (beware stairs though), and certainly would stay here again.
“lovely appartment, in a gteat city, made a fun weekend away.”
We were in Bath for a friends weekened away, we had a great time, the appartment was very close to the city. We very much enjoyed the spa we also found the bus tour gave good information and helped us to find our way arond the city.

“Modern, clean and spacious apartment; the perfect place to stay in Bath!”
I stayed at Bath View Apartment with my sister and a friend for three days while visiting the town. The apartment exceeded my expectations! It looked like it does in the pictures, only better! It was modern, clean, tastefully furnished, and very spacious, more than enough room to share with friends and family. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed and we cooked several times during our stay. The bedrooms were large and could easily sleep 5 people very comfortably. There were also two large and modern bathrooms, both with showers, which made getting ready a very smooth process. The living room was very comfortable, and the flatscreen TV with a good collection of DVDs provided some downtime entertainment.
The views of Bath were wonderful, and the surrounding neighborhood was quiet and charming. It was about a 10-minute walk downhill into the center of Bath, and a relatively easy walk back up at the end of the day. We also went back into town at night to check out the bars/pubs and had no trouble finding a cab in town to take us back to the apartment late at night. It was about a 5-minute walk to an area where there was a supermarket and wine shop.
We had a great time relaxing in the apartment and wished we could have stayed there for several more days! I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone who is visiting Bath for a few days. It is so much more spacious than any hotel room, and it feels more like a home away from home!

“Clean, stylish and homely accommodation close to central Bath”
Outstanding holiday accommodation close to central Bath. This loft apartment is very comfortable, clean and homely whilst being very modern and stylish. Everything you need for a short or even longer stay is provided. The location is fairly handy for central Bath, but it does take about 15 minutes walk into town and it's a bit of a climb when returning.
We will very probably want to return in the near future for another short stay.
Visited Bath with some girl friends and had an excellent time. Bath is a beautiful city and we stayed in a lovely apartment. We will definitely visit again and hopefully be able to stay in the Bath... more

“Spacious luxury apartment”
We have stayed at Bath View on three occasions in the last 4 years. We love the very high standard of decor and furnishing. The property is also very spacious and easily accommodates 4/5 adults.. Huge kitchen with lots of equipment so catering very easy. A car parking space is included and the centre of Bath is within a 10 minute walk although its uphill on the way back ! The owners suggest taking a taxi rather than park in the town centre but we've always managed on foot.

“Fabulous apartment, high spec, worth a visit!”
4 of us went down to bath for a hen weekend. We stayed in Bath view apartment and had a fantastic time. The apartment is amazing, we actually want to live there! Spacious, 2 bathrooms (with underfloor heating!), gorgeous views over Bath, easy walk into centre of town - less than 10 minutes - gorgeous lounge, kitchen, and bedrooms. Finished to a very high standard and I would highly recommended it if you want somewhere to stay in Bath. We would love to go back soon.

“The perfect place to stay in Bath”
We stayed here for a long weekend, its actually the second time within a year as we enjoyed it so much. I can't recommend it highly enough, its a gorgeous apartment that really feels like home the minute you step inside. Its modern, light and airy and very well equipped from the kitchen down to the Bose speaker dock in the living area. Its extremely clean and very well thought out in terms of decor with high quality bed linen and duvets on the bed. It really is a treat to stay here, and its only a ten minute walk into the centre of Bath for plenty of shops, restaurants and bars. The booking process is really easy and the owners are very helpful and friendly, leaving loads of information about Bath and taxi numbers and restaurant recommendations for you to use. The only downside for us was a 5pm check in, but on our first visit the house was already clean and empty and the owners let us check in a few hours earlier. Also, on the flipside of this, the check out is midday which is generous compared to some hotels and made for a great Sunday lie in and breakfast. It really is a great place to stay, we actually had to force ourselves out of the flat on Saturday evening as we were more than happy sitting around chatting with a bottle of wine!
Our 3 day stay at Bath View Apt was the high point for a 10 day trip to UK The apt was clean and had wonderful furnishings. The Baths were new with heated floors and the bedrooms had great beds and views. Kitchen was modern with great supply. The Living room furniture was comfortable and a wonderful gathering place.
Response: So glad you had a good time - it was great to meet you all. We hope to see you in Bath again sometime. Best wishes Jette & Ashley

“Hard to imagine anything better”
We stayed over a long weekend in the Bath View apartment that is one of the best holiday locations I ever rented. Spacious rooms with truly modern furniture, arranged in style and good taste, also practical and comfortable. Perfect cleanliness, everything at hand you may need in the lounge or the great kitchen. High quality branded technical equipments, luxury televison and home theatre, hifi, great wifi connection - and all this in the privacy of a top-floor mansion looking upon the green hills around Bath and a well kept garden. The apartment is about 10-15 minutes walk from the town centre, so if you want to commute several times a day between the town and the apartment might take it as your daily cardio training. Hard to imagine any better accomodation for a holiday be it of any kind. We can truly recommend it to anybody. The only issue was getting into the Bath Spa where you may need to queue up for even 1,5 hours if you just want to drop in. Very much recommend going on a weekday and book a treatment in advance to avoid having to wait outside. But this has nothing to do with the apartment!
Response: Thank you for your lovely comments, so glad you had a good time. Hope to see you in Bath again.
We booked this apartment for the last bank holiday weekend for a girls get together. We were looking for an apartment that would sleep all 4 of us comfortably, and be walking distance from the town centre.
We couldn't have been luckier - there are 2 bedrooms (a double and a twin), and I think an extra bed had been fitted into the twin room (there was ample room!) and so we each had our own bed. Two bathrooms also meant we could get ready quickly in the mornings - not that we did, it was a lovely flat to lounge around in and chill-out.
The kitchen is well equipped for basic cooking, so we actually cooked and ate in.
The centre of town is a lovely 15 minute stroll away, and we braved the hill by walking back too.
The absolute best parts, I would say, is the lovely lounge which has the most comfy chair, a few DVDs to watch, and the VIEW from the loung and main bedroom is amazing - you can see right over the town centre.
Am planning when we can book our next weekend away here....
Response: Thank you so much for your lovely review of Bath View, we hope to see you and your friends back here soon again. :)

“Excellent Luxury Apartment”
We have just returned from a 5 night stay at The Bath view apartment & enjoyed every minute of it . The apartment is very well presented - lovely & clean - excellent layout -great decor & furnishings -fabulous views - simply superb . Luxury all the way . Nice easy downhill walk into beautiful Bath which has so much to offer & then a gentle walk back the hill or jump on the bus or in a taxi .Bus £2.20 or taxi £5 - £6 . Park the car at the apartment & just leave it there until you are ready for home. Information books in the apartment tell you all you need to know about Local shops - main attractions - restaurants etc etc. Give it a try !!!!!!!!!!
Response: Thank you so much for your lovely review of Bath View, so glad you had a good time, maybe we will see you again in Bath soon.
"We stayed at Bath View Apartment in March 2009. We would thoroughly recommend this lovely, stylish and very comfortable apartment. Spacious, yet cosy and quiet and within 10 minutes walk of the town centre. The owners have obviously made the most of the style of the apartment and have included quality fittings and comfortable beds. This was definitely a better and less expensive option than a comparable rated hotel, especially for short breaks. 9/10!"
