We booked this ground floor flat so that we could enjoy 4 days of walking and sight seeing in and around the Bath area. The owners, Andrew and Karen, live upstairs and they gave us both a warm welcome and were on hand to help us at all times. The flat is quite outstanding with the most superb 'finish', lots of interesting features and every possible thing that you could want catered for. The location was also excellent, a couple of miles from Bath, or 6 miles from Bradford Upon Avon along the canal tow path, with a river, weir and three excellent pubs/restaurants within 5 minutes walk. We will visit Andrew and Karen's little piece of heaven again and I would recommend it to everyone. |
