Spacious, well appointed and comfortable rooms.
One night stay whilst visiting Bath to watch the rugby at the Recreation Ground. Met by a very friendly and efficient lady who checked me in and explained the various entry requirements after 11pm. Room 6 was excellently appointed, spacious and very comfortable. Huge bathroom with shower and a bath. Free car parking although probably only spaces for around 8/10 cars but they do try and keep these free for guests. Was not able to eat/drink at the hotel but the menu looked good, there was a wide range of beers and the place was busy which suggests the standard was good. It took me approximately 15 minutes to walk to the centre of Bath although it took longer coming back as up quite a steep hill. Excellent value compared to the standard hotels nearer the centre. Would have no hesitation in staying here again.

Lovely stay in the family room (2 adults, 2 children). Comfortable, spacious and well equipped room. Lovely freshly cooked breakfast and dinner in the pub was delicious. Friendly and helpful staff made it a very pleasant stay. We would happily stay again.

Had a 2 night stay to visit the Bath Christmas market. Parking was readily available onsite and the check-in process was easy and prompt with the friendly staff. The room exceeded our expectations with a lovely shower and freestanding bath, large wall mounted tv and separate radio. Whilst being located outside the city centre, it was only a 15 minute walk to the centre using the short cuts (thanks to Google maps). Would highly recommend
