Perfect place for a perfect stay

My other and I spent the week in Bath and the surrounding area. This place was perfect. The view over the canal and countryside was stunning, the central location to the town and spa made for easy walking to most places, and the beds were great!

Lovely stay in a superb location, a few minutes’ walk from Bath Abbey, the Roman Baths, and the city centre. The property was clean and quiet, and the communication with the hosts was perfect: not too much, not too little. The view of the Avon from every window was truly lovely!Tip: If you’re able to manage stairs, the little Greek restaurant Opa around the corner has the best lamb shank we’ve tasted outside Greece!

This is the perfect place to stay for a visit to Bath. Centrally located across from the river and near major attractions, it is also very quiet. The apartment has everything you need for a lovely visit to Bath. As an added bonus, the owners live nearby and are very responsive should you require any assistance. If this place available, you should grab it!

Superb location with lovely view out over the river. Excellent communication from the host and easy access to the property. Clean and tidy flat and pretty much everything you would need was there, even some tasty biscuits! Beds were really comfy.

Ideal property for a Bath family getaway

I absolutely loved Lindsey and Toby’s Bath property! We (myself, husband, teenage son and young daughter) settled in nicely after a very short walk from the train station (my husband who had been hauling our heavy bag appreciated the presence of a lift in this property, not to be taken for granted!). The property itself is on an absolutely charming block with the rooms themselves overlooking the River Avon and surrounding hillside. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen with everything you could need, and the living area was ideal for relaxing after sight-seeing. What more could you ask for? 10/10. Thank you, Lindsey and Toby!

Amazing property in an amazing city.

Amazing property located in a great spot in Bath. The views are spectacular. The entire city is walkable and needs explored. Bath Abbey, Roman Baths and Pulteney Bridge are all just a few steps away. We drove from London (not recommended driving in London, but it was fine once you got out) and so we were able to drive to Stonehenge for a day. We also visited Salisbury Cathedral 15 minutes south of Stonehenge. I highly recommend it. Everything went very smoothly with the stay. Easy check in and out. Many restaurants, shops and grocery options are located nearby. We highly recommend this property.

Nice and convenient location

We enjoyed the stay and found it to be as advertised. If you are driving the Manvers car park is a short walk to door of place. The parkade was safe but somewhat expensive but that is true all over. The highlight was finding the canal (not river) path for a run. The place was comfortable and very convenient to the village of Bath.

The Beauty of Bath

Our VRBO was located in the perfect place to walk to all of our activities in the picturesque and historic town of Bath. The lovely view of the River Avon from our living room, kitchen, and two bedrooms was wonderful and added a special treat. Our hosts, Lindsey and Toby, provided excellent directions, as well as many appreciated amenities.

Fun in Bath

Property was in a good location within walking distance of train station. It was only a short walk to grocery store. The decor in apt was simple but efficient. More instructions for the running of the TV would be helpful. The apt offered all that we could need: dishwasher, washing machine, nice large shower and good heating. Sadly the lift was not working when we arrived which proved to be challenging for three older ladies having to drag their luggage up to the second floor.

We are Lindsey and Toby, we have a young daughter Jessica and a dog called Molly.

We have lived in the flat for 10 years and now live half a mile away but still in Bath.

Why they chose this property

This is probably the best location in Bath. It is close to the train station, Bath Abbey, Roman Baths and Bath Rugby as well as being on the banks of the River Avon.

What makes this property unique

We have lived in the area for quite a while and know some great hidden gems of the beaten track. We also have access to rugby tickets for some of the sold out matches.
