  • "Rural idyll within walking distance of Bristol Suspension Bridge"

  • "Amazing stay in a beautiful home."

    Great location to explore local attractions. Outdoor space & facilities were amazing, especially the pond pool, games room, trampoline & football nets. Only improvements would be hand towels, welcome pack on information on how to operate hot tub, arga and information on recycling & bins collection days.

  • "We stayed here to celebrate my 60th birthday."

    This is a beautiful house with a lovely garden in a beautiful location. We did swim in the freshwater pond and it really did add to the experience including the pond life. The games room was a great extra and we made good use of the table tennis table. Plenty of space downstairs for 8 people but I would say that the beds did not feel enough for 8 adults, the 4th room with the trundle bed would be better for children and we had to move the chest of drawers onto the landing to extend the trundle bed and leave room for 2 adults. This house is very much the owners home and it felt strange at first because very personalised. We loved the decor downstairs but again the upstairs was a bit too much like staying with a relative for a few nights particularly the 2 childrens rooms. No wardrobe space in the bedrooms except for the master where a space had been made among the owners belongings. Very little drawer space and many of the drawers were filled with clothing and underwear belonging to the owners children. I had the master suite which had a lovely bathroom and views of the garden. Im not sure my family were particularly impressed with their sleeping arrangements but were too polite to say as I had paid. Four bathrooms with great showers in all of them. We had a fabulous week in the house but there are improvements that could be made particularly upstairs

  • "We had a wonderful chilled time in a beautiful house."

    I highly recommend this property. There were seven of us in our party, but there was ample room for all to be together, or to pursue individual interests. A very comfortable place.

  • "Great property with a real family home feel."

    Everything was clean and working so it was very relaxing. The place is very quiet and it was nice to have the chickens and horses out the back. As this is in a village, you have to drive most places, but there is a great pub 20mins walk away that serves good food and we were made to feel very welcome. We were able to get taxis into Bristol when we didn't want to take the car and this is only a few miles so isn't expensive. I would highly recommend this as a place to get away for a few days.

  • "We were a family of 3 generations and had a great week at the house."

    The gardens are gorgeous and the rooms are all beautifully furnished and the upstairs games room was priceless as it kept the two youngest very happy for hours on end playing ping pong and watching TV. Our favourite thing however hands down, was the swimming pond and we went in it almost daily, come rain or shine. It was also lovely just to sit next to it and watch the reflections of the clouds in the water, the swallows dive into it by day and the bats flutter around it by night. The children made full use of the hot tub, and we loved having the horses behind the house and enjoyed the eggs we were given from the chickens. The house is in a fantastic location with so many places to see within a short drive. We managed trips to Clifton, Tyntesfield House, Ashton Court (not that exciting in itself but the cafe is worth visiting), Bath, Symonds Yat and a coastal walk near Weston Super Mere. We also visited the local village shop (Honey & Ginger) and the Failand Inn pub for a meal. Waitrose and Tesco were only about a 10 minute drive away in Nailsea, I would definitely recommend staying here and I've already had a couple of friends ask for the details to the house.

    So pleased you enjoyed your stay and please come again if you can! Nicky Property Owner

Bask in your surroundings by lighting the barbecue and setting the table located on the decked area, where you'll also find the hot tub and sweeping pond, perfect for a freshwater dip, or spend your afternoons strolling along the lawned areas, brimming with wild blooms and mature shrubs.

End the evening with a film night in the second-floor games room, where you can also enjoy a competition of table tennis, before sloping off to sleep in one of four bedrooms.

Select between a grand super-king-size with en-suite, a king-size, a twin, and a single with trundle, all serviced by a bathroom and two handy shower rooms.
