“This guesthouse, set in a 19th-century townhouse, stands out for its location near Bath's attractions. While modest, it provides that rare combination of en-suite facilities and central access at a reasonable price. I especially appreciate the garden space-a nice touch for an urban stay.”

Mixed Experience
electrical breaker unclean shower
The landlady, Julie, was helpful providing advice regarding local attractions.
I found multiple issues . The kettle kept tripping the electrical breaker, so resetting it was frequent. The ensuite was quite small and lacked cleanliness in the shower.
