We were a party of 5 so this cottage was exactly the right size for us. The cottage is light and airy, the living area upstairs is especially nice with a lovely view and enough comfy seating for everyone. Kitchen is well equipped. Beds were all very comfy. My teenage daughter loved the high bed in the single bedroom. It's quite a walk into town but we didn't mind...buses are frequent. The garden, although nice to have, felt a little bit neglected. Morrison's supermarket very close and very useful for supplies. Jon was kind enough to let us know that there wasn't a booking before us so we got in to the cottage early which was really helpful. All in all a really comfy, pleasant stay.
We stayed in Mews Cottage as a short family getaway with my parents. Everything was lovely. The house is warm, comfortable with clean beds, a well-stocked kitchen, and a good shower. The house has very nice views of Bath and is an easy distance to town center.
My parents are older so they appreciated the fact that they could come home to a warm comfortable house after a day of sightseeing in the cold weather. Thank you Jon!
Very pretty view, convenient for the city. There was everything we needed in this characterful mews cottage. There is off street parking for one car but the parking on the rest of the street is very tight so don't rely on a second space nearby. Morrisons is very close for supplies and there was lots of choice to eat close by. We ate at the Clifton Sausage restaurant, the Raven pub in the city but the highlight, was afternoon tea at the Royal Crescent Hotel - pricey but excellent quality for that special treat. We have been to Bath before but we had never been to the Holburne Museum and Sydney Gardens behind it and they were excellent including the cafe. We also enjoyed Victoria Park which had the Steam Fair the week we went and Toppings Bookseller which is a really great independent bookstore not too far from the house. Some of the furnishings and decoration do need a little tlc which is why we have not rated the cottage 5 but it did not stop us having a really good time at the cottage and if you want somewhere to stay right in Bath then we definitely recommend it.
Wonderful property with plenty of room for our family of four to spread out and lounge. Everything was clean and comfortable, and that view of Bath from the hillside is fabulous. Landlord Jon was patient and helpful throughout in our messages. Perfect way to start our Great Britain trip!
I liked the quirkiness of the property, the layout of it may not work for everyone but it suited me and my 2 friends. We were within easy walking distance of everywhere we wanted to visit including the Roman Baths. We ate all our meals out except for breakfast but the kitchen is well equipped and the dining area had ample space. When at home we spent most of our time sitting in the lounge with the window open looking at the view.......much better than any TV show. We didn't use the garden as it is off of the downstairs double bedroom. This was my room though and it was lovely to have the door open on the warm nights and early in the morning.
Jon provided excellent directions and all the information we needed plus some reccomendations of where to eat and visit. All the beds were comfortable with quality bedding and plenty of towels provided. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and would definitely stay here again.
The apartment is well equipped, clean and comfortable. Our family of 5 stayed here for 2 nights and were able to walk everywhere easily. There is a grocery store nearby. The parking was easy on the street in front of the apartment, we did not try to go in the space provided, it looked too steep.
Great place to book for your time in Bath.
Very much enjoyed our short stay. Walk into town was fine and convenient supermarket closer. Jon was very accommodating about bag pick up. Brilliant everything-you-need-to-know doc sent in advance. Very organised!

Our family of 5 enjoyed the Mews, it was very nicely decorated and kitchen fully equipped. Beds were comfortable and the view great! One bathroom required some logistics but it worked with parents, 2 teenage boys and me the grandmother! Nice walk to the center of bath but it is quite hilly coming back so a taxi maybe a good idea if no car. Jon left lots of places to eat and good directions to all. Supermarket is a five minute walk downhill. Would definitely recommend it and would stay again on my next trip.

Lovely town house within walking distance of the city centre. Comfortable and clean with the amenities you would expect. My car was to big for the bay but there was always space on the road outside. Good base for the Somerset area as well as walks into Bath. Very nice place.

The mews house is well located for central Bath and provides comfortable accomodation for up to 5 people. It is positioned at the top of a steep hill, so if you are planning to walk to and from the centre, be prepared for the return climb (low or flat shoes advised!). There is off road parking for one car but the driveway is very steep and we scraped the bottom of the car whilst manoevering! There is street parking available but you may have to walk a little way.
The views from the property, over the valley and the garden at the rear are great and it would be a lovely spot in the Summer.
As we were 5 adults, the only downside was that there is only one bathroom/toilet.
We really enjoyed our weekend stay and would recommend Bath for a short break as it has sightseeing, shopping, good night-life and a great variety of places to eat.
