Had a good stay, was a short walk to everything needed. Flat was clean, comfortable and warm

Very well situated, quiet area. Clean and comfortable

Trying to take a bath was annoying, water flow is very poor.

Don’t waste your money, go else where

Upon turning up there was an unpleasant smell in the kitchen and bathroom, couldn’t really open windows as the neighbours a few doors down was sat outside smoking weed. After a nearly 3 hour road trip of course my 4 year old needed to go toilet, only to find no toilet roll. We then proceed to get the sofa bed ready for the evening only to find it was broken. When we eventually got the bed up it was uneven and uncomfortable, the bedding provided was heavily stained and there was a stain on the sheet of the main bed. Through the main living space there was a carpet incorrectly attached to a carpet gripper which was incredibly sharp and completely unsafe for my 1 year old. We booked a travelodge and left the property. When leaving, we bumped into the owner leaving loo roll on the door step 4 hours after check in. We explained we weren’t happy and leaving the property, pointed all these things out and although he didn’t see a problem with the carpet grippers(?!), he did agree the rest wasn’t up to standard/wasn’t good enough. He encouraged us to make contact for a refund through booking.com for a refund and of course days later he declined it even though the property was unsafe for my children and completely gross. I wouldn’t waste your money on this place. They don’t care about your comfort and safety, just lining their pockets! 👎🏼

Nice place for a short stay

It’s fine for the basics, was very clean. Host was so lovely and helpful!

When I arrived there was a weird smell, luckily it was warm out so I managed to air the property out somewhat. There is also no full length mirror.

Cosy cottage within walking distance to the town

The proximity into the town centre was great and very convenient. Lovely that a car parking space was also provided. Great kitchen space and lovely, cosy feel.

The shower and hot water was very temperamental.

Well equipped kitchen, nice little living area with smart tv.

Owners tone of response, unwelcoming!

Nothing. We didn't stay there.

I didn't like the tone of the response I received, when asked if we could check-in early or the way in which we were expected to leave our luggage in a broom cupboard outside of the property, if we arrived before check-in time! Inappropriate, unfriendly mannerisms. They had not even bothered to find out way we didn't stay at this place ! And this is the reason we went stayed elsewhere. I believe once they received the non refundable money, they don't care what you want to do if you come or don't!

Unique experience

It was a unique experience staying jn a beautiful historic building. It was well presented, facilities were great and the location was perfect. Communication with the owner was fantastic. Although the place has been modernised, you do get a feel of the period. Although there was no central heating, the electric heaters were ample to deal with the cold winter mornings.

Shower gel pot was empty! 🤣🤣 (i forgot to bring my own) *For info* Heater in bathroom is not working. Didnt want to pull on chord too hard

Good value. Would of been better in the summer

The closeness to the station. Privacy.

Heating could have been better. No point in having a washing machine with no dryer, in my opinion. Could have been better cooking facilities. Also maybe a warning on the hot water in the shower.

8.0 / 10.0

Great location, and value, if you’re looking for a character property. Would recommend for 2+ night stay.

Nice alternative to staying in hotel. Having the convenience of a sitting room and a full kitchen at your disposal. Shower pressure was excellent. Hosts were really helpful and responsive.

En famille

Appartement fonctionnel et très bien équipé, seul soucis la literie du canapé lit n'est pas très confortable mais pour un petit séjour c'est OK. Emplacement bien, au centre de plusieurs choses à visiter ; Bath, Oxford... Quartier calme. Nick est réactif et de bons conseils. Je recommande

Apartament amb encant

Aparcament gratuït al costat de l'allotjament. Cuina gran i ben equipada. Sofà còmode. En general és un lloc molt maco en un barri tranquil.

El matalàs era molt incòmode. Li vam comentar als propietaris al final de l'estada i ens van dir que el canviarien.
