Location: Bath, Somerset

Charm of Bath

Overlooking Henrietta Park, the prime location of this home will set you within walking distance of the River Avon and Pulteney Bridge in the heart of Bath – not to mention the collection of fantastic restaurants, bars and boutiques on your doorstep. After exploring the city on foot, this comfy apartment welcomes you back with its cosy living areas and an open kitchen-diner, perfect for laidback suppers at home. The third bedroom is made up of two single beds, so it’s better suited to younger families or groups of friends – just note that all six guests will be sharing one bathroom (at full capacity).

After Bath

Located in a quiet cul-de-sac just a seven-minute drive from the centre of Bath, this cosy home is perfect for friends and family to reminisce and celebrate. Inside, you’ll enjoy a slap-up meal in the modern kitchen-diner, before sharing a drink around the sleek LED fire in the living room.Wake up early and enjoy tea and breakfast in the peaceful outdoor dining area, before hopping on a bus into town. With the ride taking just a few minutes, you’ll quickly find yourself surrounded by splendid attractions like Bath Abbey and the name-bestowing Roman Baths.

Twice the Charm

This period townhouse, next to Bath’s Royal Victoria Park, invites guests to enjoy a peaceful stay close to nature, yet just a short walk (through to the other side of the park) from the historic city centre. While the local parkland boasts plenty of tranquil green space, the cottage features its own south-facing walled garden – perfect for sitting with a cup of tea in the sunshine. The interiors here ooze character, as antique furnishings bring additional charm, and features such as the roll-top bathtub are all the more inviting after a day on your feet exploring the city. Meanwhile, a great selection of books and games will keep the kids entertained here too.

Georgian Glory

Live in Georgian splendour at this Grade II listed apartment building set along Bath’s iconic Royal Crescent. Inside, every corner of this adults-only bolthole is beautifully curated with period-inspired interiors, and wait until you see the private courtyard – a rare find for a home this central. It’s worth noting that while the kitchenette is well-equipped, it’s compact and better suited to lighter bites. But let’s face it – with Bath’s vibrant culinary scene close by, we suspect you’ll be eating out anyway. Quietly tucked away from the inner-city bustle, but with all the sights within easy walking distance, the location is spot-on.

Through the Atrium

Minutes away from Bath, this house with countryside views and a landscaped lawn is an ideal stop for families exploring Somerset. Visible from the suntrap rooftop terrace, a scenic walk to the Georgian city, following the canal, will take around forty-five minutes. The other villages on the horizon are only minutes away by car. But location isn’t the only thing working for this home. It’s bright and modern, with a vaulted atrium making a beautiful first impression. There’s a gym, a small office, and a jacuzzi tub. We’re also fans of the skylights that tease the panoramic views awaiting you outside and the bi-fold kitchen door for semi-alfresco meals.

Have I Got Mews for You

Just behind the iconic Lansdown Crescent with its Georgian architecture sits this mews home with a pretty courtyard garden – we especially love this space at night when it’s all lit up. The traditional, elegant interiors with their palms and silk flowers have a lived-in feel, paired with characterful features like a large wood-burning fireplace, a stained glass window, mood lighting throughout and a carved stone basin in one of the three bathrooms. It’s just a ten-minute stroll from Bath centre so the location is excellent too, though make sure you have comfy shoes on, as the walk back home is uphill.

The Bear’s Den

In the leafy neighbourhood of Bear Flat, this home offers a little oasis while being a ten-minute bus ride or thirty-minute walk from the centre of charming Bath. Explore the city with ease then return home for cocktails on the patio. The living room features a sofa bed to accommodate two extra guests as well as patio doors, opening out onto the lovely private garden. The large kitchen is perfect for family dinners, while the dining table doubles up as a workspace if needed. Though you’ll need to travel into Bath, there’s plenty of space for you to unwind after a pint at a local pub nearby.

Flying Trapeze

Large sash windows offer far-reaching views over the honey-hued buildings of Bath, tempting you to explore your surroundings. Step outside, and you’ll find a popular family-run restaurant serving up sumptuous seasonal dishes right on your doorstep, with stunning Georgian architecture, impeccably preserved Roman baths and the 18th-century Pulteney Bridge a short walk away.

The Founder’s Legacy

As guests traverse its five floors, they are treated to a delightful nostalgic journey.
