A very welcoming atmosphere. Artistically furnished. Many wonderful details for ease and comfort. The bed was quite low and we had difficulty getting out of it. A lovely breakfast. Beautiful grounds. A very nice stay.

Wonderful hosts!

We were only able to stay one night, but would dearly have loved to stayed all week!!! Wonderful hosts in Mike & Rowena. Thank you both so much. Can’t wait to go back to this lovely establishment. We even had a game of snooker before we left!

Fabulous place

We loved staying here! Rowena and Mike were wonderful, warm and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The grounds and countryside were beautiful and it was so quiet at night. The bed was incredibly comfy and the room was clean and spacious. Care was taken to ensure little packaging waste - milk and juice in glass bottles that were used again. Breakfast was delicious, really wonderful, fresh and locally sourced ingredients perfectly cooked! A fantastic place and stay. We’d love to visit again!

Superb hosts who look after you.

I wasn't sure what to expect from The House near Bath. Firstly the location. Do we stay in Bath with a price increase or outside for better value for money etc. Woolverton is 15-20 minutes south of Bath. Its also well placed for surrounding areas like Frome too. Driving to Bath, we found a car park space fairly easy in the morning but it got busier as the day went on. Taxi and bus are an option too. Then theres the property. Is it a hotel or a B&B? It kind of has the best bits of both. Free parking, wi-fi and lovely surrounding land with a nice night sky. Leaving the best until last are the hosts Mike and Rowena. Really nice people who provide the personal touch which is why the ratings are high for this place. The breakfast is cooked to order with food from locally sourced farms. The quality of everything is not sacrificed for profit. They could easily use inferior food drink and toiletries for the sake of profit but the customer experience is put before that. Breakfast is included and cooked to order. Elsewhere fruitbowls, cereals and continental breakfast is all high quality and/or fresh. The bar located in a large conservatory is stocked with Britsh drinks and spirits from independent or family run businesses, again supporting lcoal and British companies. There are plenty of books and games for children too and a marvellous snooker table too. Mike and Rowena make this place. You want them to do well as they put so much into it. Highly recommended and great value.

Host Rowena and her husband made us so welcome for our recent one night stay. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable and we loved the decor and atmosphere. Very much made to feel like we were a house guest in their home. Loved the fact that all produce and drinks were sourced locally and breakfast was delicious. Perfect location, just a 20 min drive into Bath and much better value for money than spending a huge amount for accommodation in the city centre.

Skønt hus, skønne ejere

Stedet er absolut et besøg værd. Service og morgenmad er i top med fine lokale råvarer, og huset er flot og hyggeligt indrettet, både indenfor og udenfor. Vi blev mødt med hjertevarme, humor og en oprigtig interesse for, at vi befandt os godt.

Lovely quirky hotel with host Rowenas own individual stamp on it. Extensive grounds has plenty of seating dotted all over for a quiet sit away from it all. We were in the coach house, it was lovely, very spacious and spotlessly clean. Breakfast, as cooked by Mike, was very tasty, best scrambled eggs anywhere, with a range of organic juices to pick from and fresh fruit on offer.

We were looking to stay somewhere close to Bath for a weekend treat and found this place. What a wonderful find. A beautiful old house with stunning views across open countryside and a choice of places to eat close by. We couldn't fault our stay, the hosts are marvellously accommodating, the rooms are well equipped and in keeping with a house this old and the breakfast simply superb with maximum use of local produce. Thank you for a great relaxing stay and excellent gin and tonic.

Lovely house with large rooms. Breakfast has a wide selection of dishes all made to order. Freindly owners. Large grounds to lounge in when sunny and plenty of room inside if too rainy to go out.
