The Country Cottage | Sleeps 6 | Free Parking

Summary:

Nestled in the historic village of Freshford, this charming countryside cottage is just a short distance from the UNESCO World Heritage city of Bath. Enjoy woodland and canal walks, scenic cycling along the River Avon, and a lovely village café and shop just a minute away. Freshford is also well connected, with regular train and bus services to Bath, Bristol, Cardiff and London, making it the perfect base for exploring both city and countryside.



The Space:

This charming cottage is arranged over three floors and offers three comfortable bedrooms: one king, one single and one twin room, with one of the twin beds being a small fitted double, allowing the cottage to comfortably sleep up to six guests.



There is a spacious kitchen with breakfast bar, a separate dining room with additional seating, a cosy living room and a wonderful sunny conservatory.



Outside, guests can enjoy a lovely patio and garden with beautiful countryside views, perfect for relaxing after a day exploring Bath and the surrounding area.



Guest Access:

Guests have access to the whole cottage. There is private parking for one car. Please park in the allocated space beside the garage on the left of the cottage. Please only one car in the drive way.

Please note that there are steps up to the cottage and two flights of stairs in the home.



The Neighborhood:

Freshford is a peaceful village nestled in the beautiful Limpley Stoke Valley, surrounded by rolling fields and woodland, yet just 10 minutes by train from the historic city of Bath. The bus stops just outside the cottage and takes around 20 minutes into Bath.



The village has a wonderful community café and shop, serving delicious breakfasts and freshly prepared lunches. For an evening out, the Freshford Inn sits on the banks of the River Frome, offering a great selection of locally brewed ales and beers alongside fantastic gastro-style food.



Freshford is the perfect countryside retreat, with beautiful walks, a welcoming village atmosphere and Bath right on your doorstep.



Getting Around:

The cottage has private parking in the garage or alongside it, with plenty of space for bikes too.



The award-winning village shop is within walking distance, while Freshford train station and the village pub are around a 10-minute walk away. It’s an ideal spot to leave the car behind and explore by train, with Bath just 7 minutes away.



For a lovely day out, take the scenic 30-minute walk from Freshford along the canal to Bradford on Avon, enjoying the beautiful countryside along the way.



Other Things to Note:

We are happy to welcome one small dog to the property for an additional cleaning fee of £35 per stay. Dogs must remain downstairs and are not permitted on the furniture. We kindly ask that any mess in the garden is cleared before departure.



The master bedroom features a comfortable memory foam mattress with a latex layer.



We recommend making a note of the access information before your arrival, as mobile network coverage can be limited in the area.



Early check-ins and late check-outs may be available upon request, subject to availability and an additional charge. Please get in touch and we’ll be happy to see how we can help.

Lovely house, was very easy to check in, there was only one TV in the house which with three children we could have done with another one. Other than that it was great!

Sehr gemütlicher Ort, sehr gemütliche Unterkunft, Busanbindung nach Bath nur 50 m entfernt. Kleine Mankos: i) große Autos kommen die Rampe nicht hoch, aber Parken an der Straße ist möglich. Ii) Schlafräume incl Betten knarzen ordentlich.
