Cottage vacation rentals in Bristol

What a little gem! Great instructions on how to get there and lots of recommendations from the host on places to eat and drink and walks on the doorstep. The cottage is charming and set in a pretty and peaceful location with really easy access to the local area for days out. The cottage has all of the amenities you’ll need and is super comfortable with lots of little extra touches. The hot tub is a real treat. I would definitely recommend and hope to visit again.

Great place to stay if you are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of every day life and are looking to spend a lot of time relaxing inside the cottage itself! My partner and I spent an excellent 4 days/nights at Nick and Anita's place, watching Rory win The Masters and rewatching S1 of The Last of Us on their Sky subscribed TV, playing pool/table tennis/darts while a fire roared in the fireplace in the games room, listened to country music while sitting outside in the hot tub in the evening sun, curled up on the comfy sofa and chair in the livingroom reading our books/Kindles, etc. We did venture out to The Langford Inn for a wonderful pub lunch, to Marco Pierre White's restaurant for a steak dinner and to Cheddar for a day trip to see the caves, do the full 4-mile Cheddar Gorge Cliff-Top walk, and of course buy some Cheddar cheese! Many thanks to Nick and Anita who thought of EVERYTHING when it came to the cottage... Welcome hamper and leaving treat were much appreciated!

Beautiful place and area with rural charm and character - very therapeutic! The guest house is cosy, clean and comfortable with many items provided which made us feel welcome and at home. There is a guestbook with helpful information / instructions and recommendations for local activities. Catherine was very responsive and we felt everything was easy to understand, there were also hand written notes around the house which made it feel homely. The hot tub is lovely and tucked away in a private spot, surrounded by nature. The area is peaceful and quiet and close to The Druids Arms and Stanton Drew Stone Circle. We loved our stay and will definitely return. Many thanks to Catherine! I highly recommend.

A great home in the countryside of Bath. The surroundings are great, felt very peaceful. Was great to have the fireplace. Claire was super responsive and helpful. The rooms are great, vey much appreciated the linens, cleanest sheets and towels, wonderful duvets and mattresses. A 15’ car drive from the center of Bath. Hot bath tub was great too! Would recommend for sure.

Thank you for hosting us, Aisha. The cottage and its surroundings are absolutely stunning. Inside, the cottage is spacious and well equipped. The bathroom is a particular highlight and features a fantastic bath and underfloor heating. We were fortunate to spend New Year’s Eve at this property and were greeted with a Christmas/NYE card and a bottle of wine, which was a lovely touch! Thank you for that! Aisha was very responsive both before and during our trip, answering a question we had on arrival really promptly. A fantastic retreat in a peaceful village - with Bath being close by if you want to drive and explore locally! Would definitely recommend and return! Thank you.

Beautiful location - drive into Bath only 15 minutes. Stunning views! Place was immaculate, very clean, beautifully designed and had everything you needed. Myself and the group I attended with could not fault it.

A fabulous three night stay at this tranquil location , peaceful , out of the way - but a prime location to be in reach of Bristol , Bath, Stroud& not too long of a drive for a day trip to Sommerset. How this cottage has an availability I do not know. There are many elements that made this heavenly from the hot tub , fireplace & views from your bedroom windows. Birds tweeting & pure peacefulness. Easy instructions & a proactive host. The first air BnB I haven’t needed to ask questions when they are clearly laid out for me. We will 100% be back & 1000% recommend. Thankyou so much.

Amazing place , amazing host, didnt mind cooking , was very helpful , warm character. Clean warm , excellent service thru out .would recommend 19 times out of 10, Thanks Olivia

Have just returned from this lovely property and it was just perfect. The location is idyllic, a beautiful little village but easy reach of Bath and Bristol. The cottage was beautiful, individually decorated, homely with lots of little extras, like tea and coffee, a well stocked kitchen and beds that were so comfortable we were looking at the mattresses to find out where they came from! The property was spacious, good sized bedrooms, excellent showers and a delightful courtyard garden which is perfect to enjoy a coffee in the mornings. As described parking is a little tight at the property but we parked easily in the road and just walked up the drive which was well lit at night. There was a really good info folder in the cottage with lots of recommendations for local places to eat, we chose The Litton pub, great food and very reasonably priced drinks. We’d love to return to this cottage and are hoping to do so at a later date.

Bat Cottage was a perfect stay for nine of us exploring the Mendips, getting cosy by the fire and eating lots of delicious food made in the lovely kitchen. Sue and Abi made sure our stay was comfortable.

Fabulous place to stay within easy walking distance of Chepstow town centre. Communication was great, and the house was perfect!! Would highly recommend

Angela was a wonderful host, was always ready to help with everything we needed. Had a great time at her place, the kids loved their interaction with the two horses. The home was so cosy and really beautiful. Loved the fireplace

Such a lovely cottage and in a good location. We really enjoyed our stay and Louise was a fab host.

Stayed at Rob's lovely cottage for a weekend and couldn't recommend it highly enough. A really nice place - clean and cosy - in a great setting. Rob made our stay easy with good communication throughout. Thanks for everything, Rob

From the moment we booked this place, we knew our weekend was going to be great. The accomodation looked beautiful and was in the perfect location as we wanted to head into Bath and Monkton Comb. Tony was very helpful over message and gave us plenty of information ahead of our booking. Check in was very easy and the house was beautiful with everything you would need - we could've moved in for months it was that well equipped! Thanks again for helping make this trip so special for my mum's birthday 🎂

Down for a wedding at Folly Farm, lovely space in wonderful location. Amenities and space ideal for two couples. Easy to find and such tranquility so close to the vibe of Bristol and splendour of Bath. Wandered around the lake direct from the house on the morning of the wedding, having enjoyed dinner at the Pony and Trap (very close) on the Friday evening. Pippa very helpful host.

Perfect cottage with good amenities

We had a lovely stay at this cottage. We used it as a base to visit Cheddar Gorge, Bath and Longleat Safari and it was a perfect location for all three. The cottage was well equipped and surrounded by beautiful countryside. We particularly enjoyed watching the cows.

We stayed as a couple for two months. Lovely hosts are responsible, helpful, and friendly. Farm cottage with very good hygiene and also with beautiful garden. We often enjoyed riverside walk at Severn beach. We should have stayed longer.

Great stay at the house and perfect for what we needed. A few things the host has made clear they are working on to make the place really great but they didn't interfere with our stay.

The place was cozy and clean, just as described. Unfortunately, we couldn’t stay for the full duration due to a change in plans, but we still thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Frances was always available and responsive to any questions. Highly recommended!

First I'll say that everything was clean and as described in the listing. The furniture was comfortable and everything is thoughtfully laid out. Beyond that the host was very communicative and even let us know we'd accidentally left a jacket behind which we greatly appreciated. The location is great. It's right by the castle and parking (which does cost money but not a lot). We enjoyed walking to brunch one morning and stepping across the street for drinks and live music one evening. It's really special being able to walk out and see a stunning castle and fun town to start your day in the morning.

Delightful cottage with easy access to Bath. Spacious and very comfortable, the perfect place for family to gather and feel right at home. Many thanks.

Our stay at Gatekeepers Lodge was truly memorable. A perfect blend of comfort, cleanliness, tranquility and such a cosy atmosphere. After a busy day exploring Bath, relaxing by the wood fire was a real treat Thank you Jay !
