Summary: The property was lovely, clean, well stocked, and perfectly positioned for the 10 minute train-ride into Bath.Robin and Wendy were very communicative, gave lots of information about the area and good directions.Would happily stay here again.
Christina H. Jul 24, 2024 03:03:06 AM
Summary: The Stables was the perfect place for family to visit Bath. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The kitchen spotless with everything we needed for breakfast, drinks, snacks and meals. The hosts have made this a charming bolthole within walking distance the a great pub, and a train ride to Bath that takes only a few minutes. We will be back!

Summary: The property was spotless. The welcome card and breakfast food was a special touch. We were a party of 4 adults and 2 children. There is no garden but for us this was not an issue. We may never get back to the UK but I would not hesitate to book this property again.

Summary: Our stay at the property over New Year was made enjoyable by the ease of the booking and ease of communication with the owners who provided a much appreciated welcome basket. The property is very well furnished and utensils are abundant, making our stay feel like a home away from home. Thank you. Jenny and Kevin

Summary: We had a good time in Freshford. Great location and great size for our family of 4, with 3 space-ish bedrooms, clean and comfortable. The welcome breakfast goodies were a generous touch. We hadn't properly appreciated that were was no outdoor space and that reference to courtyard for parking is literally for cars, no outdoor furniture etc. The Inn at Freshford is only a few mins away with an amazing beer garden but in this current heatwave, we would have really welcomed somewhere outside to sit at the house. But our fault for not reading the property details more carefully. We also felt quite nervous about the repeated reminders about not blocking access for the neighbours. We didn't have any problems but it made us a little less relaxed than normal.

Summary: Perfect spot for a couple of essential workers and our kids to unwind. Lots of day hikes and train trips to Bath and Bristol to explore. Plenty of space in the cottage for us all to relax in the evenings. No car for us so planned our meals and food shopping easily with the trains and pubs along our day hikes. Bradford on Avon is a pretty 2 mile walk away along the canal with lots to offer. Great stay!
Wendy S. Sep 9, 2021 04:49:50 AM
Summary: The property was ideally located for the wedding we were attending locally. It was clean and comfortable and well equipped. Really appreciated the milk and breakfast items a lovely thought. Would recommend.
Malcolm B. Aug 23, 2021 09:25:06 PM
Summary: The property is in a good village location close to many local amenities. It is very cosy but some of the areas are beginning to look a bit tired and in need of refreshing.

sharon n. Sep 22, 2020 04:50:56 AM
Summary: The house is even better than it looks in the pictures, it is spotless and there is noting the owners have not thought of. The beds are sooooooo comfortable with new beautifully clean bed linen. There was even bacon, eggs , bread, butter milk, tea, coffee, sugar left for us. It is in a beautiful location with great links.. The local pub does fabulous food. We will be back !
