  The Coach house is a beautiful quite,clean spacious cottage in a very good location and the owner Mary was very pleasant and helpful.

  We received a lovely welcome gesture of food and the bottle of rose wine was really nice and cold and went down very well with the comfort of relaxing after our journey. Great for a short walk around the village or a long walk out the country with foot path areas nearly all the way. Good for cycling too and it’s a nice 30 min ride into Bath following a quiet, fairly flat cycle route. Bristol city centre is not far either for shopping and I recommend eating out at La Famiglia which is a Top class and fairly priced Italian restaurant. There’s Cheddar gorge, Wookey hole and The Severn bridge within 30 mins or so if you fancy a drive then a walk about in the daytime but it’s lovely to get back to the cottage and chill out and the rooms warm up quickly and the shower is powerful and the bath nice and relaxing. The bedroom is upstairs and on it’s own and the full moon shone through a couple of nights which was nice ( there are dark blinds too if you prefer) and it’s so quiet waking up there too. We will definitely return there when we can again. I would also like to thank Mary again for posting on my trainers I left behind and for being kind and generous while we were there.

  We really enjoyed staying here right from the beginning.

  We were massively delayed in arriving due to horrendous traffic but the owner was so laid back and caring about the whole matter that it made things much easier for us. The cottage was a delight to stay in and we wouldn't hesitate to return. We left yesterday and I'm ready to go back now. Details like Prosecco and milk in the fridge, every mod con you can think of, more than ample towels, bedding, shampoo and other toiletries that we could have used if we'd chosen to, not to mention how clean everything was. Fabulous. The nearest convenience store was 5 mins walk away. Bath was easy to get to and we could have even hopped on the bus if we'd wanted to. Parking was expensive in Bath, like in all cities, and if it had been warmer, we would have caught the bus in. I left something behind (doh!) and the owner phoned me to say that she is posting it on to me. First class in all respects; this suited us very well.

  My husband and I stayed at this lovely cottage in Bitton in March for a well needed break.

  Looked ideal on the site and didn’t disappoint us when we arrived. Had a little trouble finding it at first as it’s a sharp turn into the property and because the navigator was rubbish,(me)! Lovely cottage with private enclosed parking right outside the cottage. We were greeted by Mary who is absolutely lovely couldn’t do enough for us and very chatty. We had everything we needed and the Prosecco was a nice touch as was milk and stuff for beverages. Really no need as there’s a premiere just a few minutes walking distance if you need anything desperately. Lovely and cosy with central heating. The bedroom is a little tight for large people, which we’re not but otherwise comfortable. Quirky creaking floorboards up there which is well funny when you get up during the night trying not to wake your partner but you’d definitely hear unwelcome intruders. Not a problem if you’re hard of hearing lol

  Where do i start.

  ??? The whole cottage is is in need of some tender care and a DEEP DEEP clean. The chairs are uncomfortable stained cushions and mats stained. and in need of a good clean. Who leaves a green scouring sponge and dirty dishcloth for the next guests to use. The frying pan more bent and stained than you can imagine. The oven glove left was disgusting and just fit for the bin. Every door the runners on the back thick of dust. And the big beams in main bedroom are covered in 1 inch of cacked dust the only thing missing was the birds nest. The patio could be lovely if powered washed and moss removed. Would have been nice to be able to make a drink on arrival but the only thing in cupboards was packets of food clearly left from previous guests , a few tea bags and milk would have been nice. Have in stayed at a few holiday cottages can only say (as our first Sykes )if this is there standard will be the last.

  This was the perfect getaway for a relaxing break.

  The property is well equipped and very comfortable and the owner is a lovely lady who is keen to ensure that her guests are happy. There was an issue with a blocked drain when we arrived and it was sorted out immediately. It is set in a quiet village within easy reach of many places to visit. We walked to both Bath and Bristol along the cycle/pedestrian path and also visited Weston Super Mare and Chepstow. The weather was gorgeous which was an added bonus. Whilst we like to cater for ourselves, we did have two meals out. One at the Swan in the next village (only 10 minutes walk) and the other at the Brassmills. Both are highly recommended. With a Tesco superstore in nearby Keynsham and a local shop, we had everything we needed. We were very sad to leave!
