Summary: Lovely spacious property in a beautiful location with easy access to Bath and other local sights by road or rail. The cottage is a short walk to the train station with hourly trains to bath during off peak times. Not having to drive into Bath was a real bonus. The cottage was very clean, well equipped and a really lovely place to relax. Having two en suite bathrooms was a real bonus. The local shop and tea room is only a short walk, maybe 15 mins, though it is hilly so plan to use a car if this could be an issue. There is also no accessible access to the return side of the station platform but GWR are worth a call if step free access is needed. I would highly recommend The Rafters and would definitely stay there again.

Summary: My wife and parents had an excellent stay at The Rafters. The property is well equipped and situated in a quiet yet convenient location. Only ten minutes travel time to Bath using the train. Two big bedrooms and two en-suites. We made good use of the train station, shop and pub (Hop Pole Inn). Highly recommended.
