Perfect Retreat for Dog and Family
After being in Lockdown, we were looking forward to our trip to Bath and we were not disappointed with the facilities at the apartment, Laine was very helpful during the check in process and the information provided was very informative. The roll top bath and beds were very comfortable! We walked everywhere as you and with two parks within 5 mins of walking for the dog, it was really prefect! We will be back for sure.
