  • "The house was lovely."

    The bedrooms are particularly amazing and very comfortable. En-suites were great and heating system works really well. The decor is stunning and interesting. We found it really comfortable for six of us. Kitchen is a bit tight to eat in as well but it worked and wasn’t a problem. Front garden gets a lot of sun all day which was nice to sit out in. Excellent access to Bath, either by bus or walking. The walk is a pleasant stroll through nice roads and the park. All in all it was an excellent holiday, no doubt helped by great weather, but even so we would go again.

    Thank you for your delightful comments and l look forward to welcoming you back to Southbank. Check out my newest property which l manage/clean in Tewkesbury 1163701. Property Owner
