About the home

PEACEFUL, QUIET LOCATION - PERFECT ANY TIME OF THE YEAR!

Situated in the picturesque and peaceful garden of the owner's property, Ashton Lodge Cottage was formerly the gardener's cottage for The Grange. Peaceful and relaxing, the cottage makes the ideal base from which to explore Bath, Bradford on Avon and the wider area of Wiltshire and Somerset. A lovely self catering Wiltshire Cottage.

Built of Bath stone, with pretty roof gables, the cottage is perfect for a couple, or a small family and many of our guests return year after year. The owner is on hand to assist you with local knowledge of the area and will be only too happy to help you to plan your stay.

The cottage is well maintained to a high standard and is within a few minutes of local shops as well as two large supermarkets. There are local restaurants and takeaways nearby and a very popular pub within walking distance serving food and drinks.

The Central Southern England / Wiltshire region

Located in the village of Hilperton on the outskirts of Trowbridge (the County Town of Wiltshire) and just 12 miles from Bath. Longleat is one of the largest attractions in the region and there are also plenty of National Trust properties nearby as well as the perfecxtly preserved village of Lacock, location of Harry Potter and also the recent BBC series, Cranford.

Cheddar caves and Wookey Hole caves are fascinating and are imaginitively presented by means of a series of lights which identify various collections of stalagmites and stalagtites and even the legends of a witch or two!

This region is renowned for its food and farmers' markets are plentiful - buy west country Cheddar, Wiltshire Ham, Somerset Brie or freshly squeezed apple juice or cider.

Avebury, Stonehenge and numerous ancient burial sites are near at hand with Westbury White Horse offering an opportunity for a windswept walk and views over the surrounding countryside.

There are canal and river walks and the pretty town of Bradford on Avon offers history, antiques shops and honey coloured houses with small streets to discover, straddling the River Avon.

The Trowbridge area

The Roman Baths, Pump rooms and the Georgian crescents are Bath's treasures. The Thermae Spa is attracting millions of visitors from all over the world who wish to sample the benefits of the thermal waters so favoured by the Romans.

The Fashion Museum, Jane Austen Centre and Bath At Work are popular with visitors.

“Absolutely Perfect” Stayed at Ashton Lodge Cottage with my mum for a week as a base for our stay in the UK from Australia. Such a beautiful place to stay! The cottage is presented immaculately and has the most cosy lounge and beautiful comfy bed upstairs! The garden is lovely to sit in for a coffee, and the cottage has all the amenities you need to self-cater, including a stack of brochures on what to do around the area and transport options. The hosts are lovely and we were very sad to leave! They even brought us some delicious apples from their apple tree! Buses are easy to catch and there are pubs and shops within walking distance - we had dinner at the Red Admiral three times in a week! We loved it! Hilperton is a lovely village and is perfectly located to see Bath, Bristol, Longleat, The Cotswolds, Devizes, everywhere! Trowbridge is a lovely town too we spent a very nice day there. We even visited the local hall for a game of bingo with the friendliest locals! Thank you so much for our stay we loved everything about the place and would love to stay again when back in the UK. We would recommend to everyone and would say the price is extremely reasonable. Response: Very gratifying to know that the cottage was appreciated and I should be glad to welcome such discerning guests at any time
