    "We had a wonderful stay at Humphreston House."

    The house is beautiful and perfecly nestled in lovely countryside with easy access to Bath, Frome, Bristol, Longleat, and some of the best National Trust locations in the country. Ann and Les were great hosts and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything needed for our dog and two young children. Highly recommend!!!

    It was a real pleasure to meet you all and I’m so pleased you had a lovely stay. Thank you for your kind words and it was genuinely nice to spend some time with your dog. He was a great companion for our dogs and a gentle giant. I have never thrown a ball so many times… ☺️Ann x Property Owner

    "The property was amazing."

    Spacious, several floors and lovely sized bedrooms. Parking was brilliant off road, convenient location for surrounding Bath and Bristol, Cheddar, Wells and Longleat Safari Park. Cleanliness, comfort and all round lovely. The host Ann was very responsive and very helpful, and lovely lady

    Thank you for your lovely comments. It was so nice to meet you all and your children (and dogs!) They all loved being the garden - and meeting our dogs too! The weather was so good and I thank you once again for my lovely gift of a rose for the garden and the girls for their hand written notes which are really sweet. Ann x Property Owner

    "A comfortable stay at an amazing property that is well located for many activities."

    The welcome pack was a great touch. An impressive array of books. We loved the decor, though the second floor and third floor shower room(no bath) was challenging for our little ones. The garden was interesting but too open to let children free roam or the dog off lead. Overall a brilliant holiday

    "Humphreston House is a lovely place to stay."

    Handy for attractions such as Cheddar and Longleat, Bath and Bristol. The house is well equipped with plenty of space and a lovely garden. Ann and her family (the owners - live next door) are lovely in case you need any advice. My fitness levels are great now thanks to those stairs !!

    Thank you for such a lovely review and you’re very welcome on the fitness level! . It’s good to have guest feedback too and we do listen. One potato masher on its way. It was great to have you here even if the weather was a little changeable. You got some sunny days and I’m glad you enjoyed your visit. Ann x Property Owner

    "We had a wonderful stay at Humphreston House."

    It was beautifully clean and welcoming with a lovely welcome note and basket of goodies. The owners were so kind and helpful. We loved the quirky nature of the house and it did our fitness levels enormous good climbing up and down the stairs (45 from kitchen to top bedroom!!) We would definitely recommend this house as a great place to stay.

    Thank you so much. And well done for counting all the steps! We do want our guests to have the best stay they possibly can. It was great to meet you all and your lovely dogs!! Property Owner
