The elegant, contemporary family bathroom provides everything you need to feel refreshed from sunrise to sunset, from kick-starting a busy day to washing off a long day of walking the local trails.

We had a wonderful stay and the welcome to the apartment was easy and helpful. The apartment is very close to the city centre and all the attractions. Recommend this place.

So pleased you enjoyed your time. Hopefully we will see you again soon. Take care.
The place was comfortable, clean, and conveniently located. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend this location, especially for longer term rentals.
My friend and I had a great stay in Bath! We felt like the flag was perfectly advertised and loved the proximity to the city center. It was clean, safe and we’ll decorated, and we felt at home. I’d highly recommend!!
The flat was modern and very comfortable. Parking was easy and we walked to most of the sites in Bath. Directions were very clear. We had a great time staying here.
Our 12 year old daughter said that this place felt like a home, and that she wished that she could pick it up and take it to the other destinations we were going to stay at. We would recommend this apartment if you are ever staying in Bath.

Wow. What a gorgeous thing for her to say. So lovely to read. Thank you and so pleased you enjoyed your stay.
A very good location only a few minutes walk into town, apartment quiet even though on a busy road, big plus is car parking, service of apartment could have been better, bins not emptied which should have been checked and sofa is a little tired other than that a very good apartment, had everything you need, generally clean and tidy.would use again.
The property was very comfortable and had the most amenities out of all the VRBOs we have visited. The location was fabulous… next to Henrietta and Sydney parks… both incredible!!!
We took one of the best walks from this location to the Bathwick Hill meadows.. so Beautiful and close❤️
We appreciated the quality of this property.. as an example we had usb ports in the unit. The kitchen was well stocked and very functional .
Typical Bath style house from the outside with free parking space and modern and contemporary apartment on the top floor with fantastic views of the area and city. Loved the modern simple style furnishings of great quality with plenty of space for 3 people. Extras such as sumptuous bed linen and towels, a dishwasher and a small welcome pack highlighted our stay. Central location so did not need a car to tour round the city and local enough to 2 parks for evening walks and a game of tennis with a convenience store nearby. Strongly recommend the property that is good value for money. We would stay here again.

So lovely to hear you enjoyed your time,
Thank you for your stay, do come again.
5-star part: Updated, super clean, great location, best equipped ever, high end appliances, fast Wifi. Mandy and Bettina were very helpful getting early difficulties sorted. If there's a downside, the living/dining furniture is less than comfortable for a long stay.
1-star part: Apt. listed as top floor; true. Description says it has a lift; true. In the fine print it says the lift goes to the 2nd floor; true. What it doesn't say is that there is a difficult flight of stairs between #2 and the apt on #3. We are elderly and not as mobile as we used to be so the lift was critical to us. Those stairs made our life difficult for 22 days. We informed Bettina of our problem at check-in, she said they'd find a solution but we never heard from them again. As we'd pre-paid, we were stuck because of a dubious advertising wording.

Sehr schöne Wohnung!
Die Wohnung Herschel Heights hat uns sehr gut gefallen, wir können sie nur weiter empfehlen. Die Einrichtung ist hochwertig und sehr geschmackvoll. Wir haben uns mit 3 erwachsenen Personen sehr wohl gefühlt. Bei den teuren Parkgebühren in Bath ist der zur Wohnung gehörende überdachte Parkplatz super. Die zentrale Lage, in 10 Minuten Fußweg ist man im Stadtzentrum, ist ein weiterer Pluspunkt. Zur Begrüßung fanden wir Milch im Kühlschrank und Kaffee und Gebäck in der Küche. Die gesamte vertragliche Abwicklung von der Buchung bis zur schnellen Rückerstattung der Kaution war völlig problemlos.
Wenn Bath, dann Herschel Heights! Thank you for a wonderfull stay.
