  • "The property was warm and cosy."

    Really comfy bed. The chocolate cake for us on arrival and the dog treats for Buddy were a lovely thought. Great location and easy access to Bath. Would have been a wonderful location for some nice dog walks had Storm Bert not rendered us house bound! Would come back definitely.

    Thank you so much for your lovely comments, especially as Storm Bert put paid to any question of dog walks. Please do come again - you'll be very welcome. Property Owner

  • "The cottage was wonderful and the location was perfect!"

    We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it. Ruth was so kind and thoughtful, she greeted us on our day of arrival and left lots of yummy food and drinks for us. The dishwasher and washing machine is a great addition, we didn't have any problems using the corner sink either. The scenery from the front room is breathtaking, we'd definitely recommend going for a walk around the fields and pathways, we found Ruth's walking map very helpful. We loved meeting the sheep and horses in the local fields! Plenty of space for parking and a sweet little garden to use in nicer weather. Location was great for supermarkets/corner shops and the park and ride was only a 6 minute drive away. Would stay again in a heartbeat!

    Your wonderful feedback took my breath away and thank you so much for taking the trouble to leave such positive and comprehensive comments. Property Owner

    The cottage was light and very clean. The views are amazing even from laying in the bed. Ruth left us a lovely cake (sorry we didn't eat it) and a nice welcome bag. These little things really do make a difference. We loved it at Hillside cottage.

    What lovely comments and thank you so much. Property Owner

  • "Positives : Nice location,lovely views ,quiet ."

    Good sized TV. Eclectic styles. negatives :kitchen, sink tucked away in corner, difficult to wash up. lack of small oven trays. Oven could do with replacing. sheepskin covers on chairs & sofa bed : not sure having dogs & then humans sitting on them is very hygenic. bathroom & kitchen very small no Visitors book to leave comments. needs a bit of TLC. suggestions: jug to help fill kettle with water, pizza tray & cutter,more ovenware. Gravy jug.

    Thank you for your feedback and suggestions. I would point out that the sheepskins on the chairs and sofas are for human use exclusively - no reponsible dog owner lets their dog sit on chairs in a holiday let. At Hillside Cottage, dog beds are provided for canine use. Property Owner

    Really good bus connections to Bath which was much better than driving and parking even with dogs. The dog beds provided were great as was the enclosed garden As the listing says, the stairs are steep and challenging for an older dog. Thankyou for the milk and cake provided on arrival.

  • "We really enjoyed our short stay at Hillside cottage, we came to visit Bath Spa University for an open day."

    On arrival we were greeted by Ruth and the beautiful doggies and once inside the property there were biscuits and hot drink facilities available which was very much appreciated after the long journey. The bed and sofa bed were absolutely amazing and felt like sleeping on big cushions. Though it was cold due to the winter period we were advised by Ruth that we could turn up the radiators to keep warm which was lovely. There are amenities close by after a short drive to Lidl or Sainsbury's and the cottage has amazing views which makes a wonderful change to our local city views, it's also in a wonderful location for visiting either Bath or Bristol if it takes your fancy. Thank you Ruth for being so welcoming from Fran, Rob and Jorgia.

    Beautiful views across the countryside, and a well kept, lovely home away from away. Had all the amenities that you could ask for, and the owner left a nice little welcome package including a really nice coffee cake and some mini stollen (that we've been hunting for more of ever since, haha). Would happily stay again and would highly recommend to anyone planning to explore Bath and the rest of this corner of the country.

    The owner has thought of everything, plentiful towels, cleaning materials, liquid soap etc. The bed is very comfortable, easy chairs ok but could be better!

    Everything we could possibly need which made the place feel like home. The thoughtful gift of a lemon cake was much needed after a long journey. Couldn't have asked for a more idyllic setting. Lovely and peaceful but less than 10 minutes drive to the P&R for Bath. The best of both worlds.

  • "We were very excited to stay at Hillside Cottage and it certainly did not disappoint."

    The cottage is situated on top of steep hill overlooking stunning views over country side with horses, sheep, pigs and chickens nearby which is delightful and peaceful. Tricky tight parking space but you get used to it. The cottage has everything you need and has home from home feel to it. There is a hilly short walk to local park, fields, shops, pubs and petrol station. The cottage is close to City of Bath which is lovely to explore. We enjoyed going to local towns, shops and Cheddar Gorge caves. It was a pleasure to stay at Hillside cottage, my Labrador enjoyed his first holiday and we would definitely like to return in future. Many thanks to Ruth. Emma, Darren & Milo

  • "We enjoyed our stay at Hillside cottage."

    It was extremely cosy and the owner was very welcoming in spite of our early arrival and she was only just completing her preparations . She immediately responded to our request for the use of the sofa bed and made it up on the spot. The flat is well-equipped (if anything a little over provided) but interestingly and imaginatively kitted out. The views from both rooms were splendid and the small garden provides a relaxing sitting space. Unfortunately the weather was against our making good use of it. The bonus for us was to leave the car and walk up to Peasdown to take a bus into Bath for the day and then to Wells on the following day. The part closure of the road past the property for Water Board works could have created difficulties but didn't . The property is well lit internally and the stairs have a stairgate at the top to prevent accident. All in all it was a welcome short break

We had no problems with anything. The sunrise and sunset views from the sitting room were fantastic every day and most mornings we saw hot air balloons rising over the hills. It was far too hot for us to go sightseeing but we were visiting family and we hired a barge on the canal one day and also went to the coast for a swim - perfect during a heatwave!

    Be careful if you get up at night - there are steps in unexpected places - and if you drive a 1950s Cadillac you may have trouble parking. But the cottage has stunning views, is a very comfortable place to stay, has excellent wifi, a Tv with Netflix, YouTube and Amazon Prime and a very pleasant and helpful landlady. If you want to eat out we can recommend The Meeting Place in the village for breakfast, lunch and snacks and, for evening dinner, Wetherspoons, in a converted cinema in Midsomer Norton.

    The host was kind and on hand. The setting is beautiful with amazing views. It's also very peaceful. The garden is sweet and handy for sitting quietly.....just the sounds of the countryside. The apartment is very compact but has everything you might need. We found the steep steps to the first floor a slight challenge for my partner who has mobility issues and for our dog who has some arthritis. We were aware of the steps when we booked. It's just good to know. We felt the apartment was a little tired and dated, but that's simply personal taste. Very nice local walks on the doorstep too. Overall, we'd recommend here for the beauty of the location, peace and quiet and convenience to Bath, Wells and Mendips.

Bathroom is small but the double shower is great, I could have my baby in there as I showered, which is very useful! Stunning views and the sun hits the garden perfectly. Only down side is the TVs randomly loose signal at times but not for long. Glastonbury, wells, beaches north and south all about an hour and less than two, away.
