  • "Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Loft."

    David and Alison made us very welcome and the cream tea on arrival was very welcome. They also gave us some great tips for visiting local places of interest. Journey into Bath via Park and Ride is definitely recommended. The only downside for us was not being able to control the heating system without contacting the owners via text. Other than that everything else was as expected.

  • "This is a perfect country retreat on the outskirts of Bath."

    The area around is VERY hilly so, if like me you don't come with a car, you need to be fit to walk around and there is no bus going through the village. However a taxi into Bath city centre was about £13/£14 so not too expensive. The loft itself felt very cosy. A little noise from the main house (mainly closing of doors, washing machine and some voices) but nothing too major. The kitchen area was well stocked, no washing machine, but it had a dishwasher which, in the absence of a sink you could fill, was necessary. Very comfortable bed, nice shower. The owners were incredibly helpful but also left me to it. The cream tea was a lovely welcome. I would certainly stay again or recommend to anyone wanted a base for the area.

  • "A lovely place to stay in the middle of the countryside yet only up the road (literally) from the centre of Bath."

    The silence was so lovely coming from a busy City for a break. A beautiful view from the loft and everything we needed for the week, pots and pans and throws and leaflets with tourist attractions and even a cute little cream tea when we arrived! It was super clean and very cozy. Great location too. Everything was just a short distance away. The furthest we drove was an hour away. A mention too for David, one of the owners who also made sure we were comfortable and recommended places to go and things to do. Really appreciated.

    Our stay was extremely comfortable and we cannot find anything to criticise with the accommodation or the location. The owner , David , was very helpful and kindly gave us a tour of the parish church which is adjacent. The views from the balcony are amazing. We would highly recommend staying at The Loft.

  • "We came to Bath to celebrate our son's graduation."

    What better place to stay than the Loft? It had everything we could need, all contained in a lovely apartment, and away from the bustle of the city. It was so good to sit on the sofa, with the patio doors open, enjoying the view. A word of warning if you are not used to rural driving; the lanes around Englishcombe are very narrow and twisty. It may be "outskirts of Bath" but it is definitely countryside! No problem to us, we're mountain folk. David and Alison were perfect hosts; friendly and accessible, but discreet. It was a pleasure to meet them, and to stay in their property.

    We felt very comfortable there and the owners were welcoming and very nice. The shower is great and there was plenty of hot water. Easy access to Bristol Park & Ride for days out in the city and various other places. Wells is definitely worth a visit and we can also recommend the "Bad of Bath" guided walking tour. All in all a very pleasant stay and we would highly recommend this property.

    Beautiful first floor barn conversion ( private parking space and own entrance up wooden steps) in a tranquil rural village very close Bath. Comfortable and spacious bedroom with plenty of cupboard space. Excellent en suite shower. Well equipped kitchen/dining/sitting room. Amazing skies and views over surrounding countryside from the comfort of your own sofa through double doors that open out onto the small wooden deck.

    Thank you to the delightful and accommodating (but not intrusive) owners David and Alison for their helpfulness and willingness to provide an excellent service in all matters, even giving us permission to charge our newly-acquired electric vehicle from their domestic supply ( we did pay them for the privilege!) The property is spacious, incredibly well-equipped, spotlessly clean and located in a quiet rural setting with wonderful views over the owners’ garden and Somerset countryside beyond. Whilst being in a tranquil setting, the property was also within easy reach of so many interesting places to visit. We spent time in Bath itself (try the free Mayor’s guided walk) and also visited Bristol (the old covered markets and waterfront were fascinating and lunch in the Pump House pub was very welcome). We went to a number of National Trust properties (Lacock Abbey, Great Chalfield Manor, Dyrham Park and Westwood Manor), all within easy reach of The Loft. We found Corsham to be a delightful small Wiltshire market town (a lucky find as we only went there to make use of a rapid public charger for the car) and also enjoyed brief visits to Frome and Bradford-on-Avon (try the Secret Garden cafe where owner David is so welcoming). We certainly would not hesitate to highly recommend The Loft and hope to return there at some future date.

  • "Beautiful scenery, lovely big shower."

    The kitchen had every utensil you could need as well as tea, coffee, sugar & milk. The scones & wine were just lovely. Great location, easy journey in to Bath by bus. Great walks around the area. The owners were great & said if there was anything was needed, they also had a selection of leaflets of local attractions as well as maps which were very useful. Wonderful stay. Couple of suggestions just to improve the stay even more, curtains or blinds on the main door would be good, obviously during the day they let in a lot of the light & provide beautiful views but in the evening it would have felt even more cosy having something to pull across. Also, just a tiny thing but a bracket on the TV would be good, just naturally the main sofa is pointed towards the view & so it's difficult to see the TV from there of an evening without moving the sofa. But brilliant stay & I would definitely recommend & stay here again.

    Great views, lovely walks from the door and a very comfortable bed. Also only 10 minutes to the centre of Bath and a large Sainsburys supermarket in spite of being surrounded by rolling countryside. Really helpful owners with great advice on walks and the local farms shop/café.

  • "We loved our stay at The Loft at Lucott House."

    Our hosts, Alison and David were friendly and helpful. Delicious scones with jam and clotted cream were provided....a lovely touch. The Loft was bright, clean and modern with everything one needed to make ones stay comfortable. The shower had plenty of hot water and the King size bed was very comfortable. The village has many quaint stone houses with pretty gardens and The Loft has a great view over the hillside. Bath is a busy interesting town, but for peace and tranquility it’s worth visiting Great Chalfield Manor House and Gardens, where the roses and herbaceous borders were simply beautiful and the manor was very picturesque. The Loft at Lucott House is a great place to stay.

    Be aware it is situated down some windy country narrow roads and as the name suggests it is a loft accessed by a wooden staircase. I would recommend as a place to stay as the view alone is worth it.
