From booking to arriving and then leaving the communication and instructions were clear and precise. the apartment is in an excellent location, close to the shops and bars and restaurants but also near the canal path where you can walk for miles in the beautiful countryside. The apartment was clean and comfortable and had everything you need for a comfortable stay. the steps down to the property are quite steep and can be a bit slippery when wet but if you are careful then there shouldn’t be an issue. We would definitely book this property again and wouldn’t hesitate to use Bath Holiday Rentals again.

Nice clean place as described - Walkable to town in about 15-20 minutes - There is a train next to the building but it didn't bother me - Would recommend

This small flat is as everything we needed. Right in the middle of the great places in Bath. We stayed almost a week and became regulars at the Pulteney Bridge coffee shop and a couple other restaurants nearby. Great stay

The place was in the absolute perfect location if you want to see Bath, be walking disturbance from sights and restaurants, but still have, a nice peaceful place to come home to. The overall aesthetic was really charming and the bathroom especially felt updated and nice without losing that charm. Hosts were responsive and provided plenty of information up front, as well as in a guide in the flat, so there really wasn’t anything that came up during our stay. We felt right at home! If we went back to Bath we would definitely stay here again!

The flat was as charming as pictured, inside and out. The high ceilings made it feel larger than its footprint and helped keep the space cool despite the hot summer afternoons. It was well-stocked with essentials from (unopened) milk in the fridge and coffee and tea in the kitchen cupboard, to laundry detergent for the washing machine. When we asked about dishwasher tablets, two were provided within a few hours. We enjoyed our stay there immensely.

This property was fantastic! Very spacious and charming. I loved the stonework of the basement apartment, the large bathtub, and the fully stocked kitchen. The bed was very comfortable, and I enjoyed all the Bath reading material! We even got a late checkout so that we could make our Bath Abbey Tower tour (A MUST DO!). I did not want to leave. Mind the steep steps down into the apartment, and the little terrace and inner corridor are a great spot to place the umbrellas. This was within walking distance of absolutely everything, and I enjoyed being over the bridge from the hubbub. It was fun overlooking the rugby field, too! Highly recommend.

We loved this space - it does not feel like a basement as it has very high ceilings and windows. The space had everything we needed including a washing machine! The apartment has two different tables and chairs you can use for serving a small meal and the kitchen provided us a tiny but perfect food prep space. Only tricky with this space is the shower in the clawed tub - it was hard not to get water on the floor while showering and the shower space is tight inside the curtain. The bath is fabulous! Location is perfect to reach all the sights!

We were thrilled with this very cosy booking in the heart of Bath, a brief walk to all the places we needed to be: the recreation/rugby ground, the river and the local restaurants and shops. The decor is so stylish throughout and we felt very pampered and relaxed there throughout our stay. The only thing I would warn is that the outside steps down are very steep and potentially slippery (it snowed during our stay!) and the door handles are quite stiff for weak hands. But it was so warm and welcoming when we walked through the door and an endless supply of hot water for the fabulous free standing bath was an added bonus. I really recommend this delightful little bolt hole for any trip to Bath in the future and we would definitely return ourselves.

I loved this unique property. The little courtyard was a nice place to have morning coffee. We were close to the main attractions. All our amenity needs were also met. Recommendations for Cavendish foods was excellent. Both my daughter and I enjoyed our stay.

The location was more than perfect! Close enough to walk home to use the loo, but not in the bustle of the town. The high ceilings and decor are quaint and just how you want to feel in Bath. It can be damp, so be sure to turn on the dehumidifier if it's rainy out. Would recommend!

The apartment was ideal for a short stay in Bath. Great location in a quiet Georgian townhouse street just a few yards down from the Pulteney bridge, so very close to centre of town. The basement flat was approached by a narrow winding staircase which is not for the infirm or elderly (and extra care needed if wet/icy). The property itself was cosy and quaint with a separate small kitchen area with all your needs. The bath itself was a stand-alone modern unit of period design. The shower controls were a bit tricky to operate and get used to - some written instructions in the guest book would have been helpful. Aside from that everything was good and I would not hesitate to recommend this property. Alexa had compiled a very handy user guide to the property and some useful reading material about Bath and its history.

The BEST location in Bath. Close to everything, but just across the bridge to avoid the noise of the traffic or nightlife. Highly recommended! Comfy bed, large tub/shower, and a genuinely charming and beautiful place. Communication is excellent and they even provide an app with instructions, guidebook, recommendations, etc.

Highly highly recommend! Not only was the apartment stunning (the pictures are great but it’s even better in real life), but the location couldn’t have been better and was literally a 5 minute walk from the Roman baths! The hosts were extremely helpful and accommodating and staying here was a highly enjoyable experience!
