Booked the apartment for two nights to visit family and friends. Easy to find and private parking right in front of the apartment. Very clean and tastefully decorated. A nice assortment for a continental breakfast was left. Upstairs the bedroom was so pretty we slept so well very peaceful and warm. I'm taking some of the decor ideas home with me! The shower was nice and hot. We would definitely stay again when visiting family. Thank you Victoria

It was quite an education!
We spent an awful night there. It was a stopping off place from a lovely holiday in Port Isaac. When we arrived, our first siting was a disgusting 2 seater table and chairs, mouldy, rusty, dirty and smelly! It had as a centre piece a dirty old baked bean can nearly full of cigarette ends!! It was a lovely sunny evening and we would have loved to have sat out, but my husband wanted to be sick, and there was no way we could even have sat there even for a minute!! On the site we booked, it said that a really good breakfast was included for the £90 a night stay, but this turned out to be a ‘cook yourself egg, 2 slices of toast each , jam and orange juice.!
Upstairs was really nice but the bathroom but was small. Downstairs, was exceedingly pokey. We would never stay there ever again! We had accepted that it might be a continental breakfast, which we expected to contain ham, cheese etc. Also when we unpacked, there was another guests clothes hanging in the wardrobe, which had gone unnoticed to them!! We contacted the owner, but she was very dismissive and argued the point as if she was the one hard done to!!!!

Oh Maeve, I wished you had phoned me when you arrived and I would of rectified the problem immediately for you. I’m so sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay. You did advise me you were travelling from the north of us and I sent you directions of how to find us in this directions. I really don’t know why the old beans can was left on the table outside, the cleaner overlooked the offending can. But I assure you that it had only been left by the guest the night before and certainly was not full (it only had 3 butts). However, I can only apologise and I quite understand that cigarette butts are offensive to non-smokers and I do provide a proper cigarette butt pot (which is discreetly positioned away from the patio set). The bistro garden set is 'vintage' and has ‘verdigris’ but it certainly is not mouldy. I provide 'Kath Kidston' seat covers (which are stored in the apartment) for my guests to use. The accommodation is an apartment so it would be very difficult to 'serve' breakfast, so I supply a breakfast pack consisting of fresh orange juice, a selection of teas, instant and fresh coffee and fresh milk, eggs, cereals, yogurt, bread (for toast) and preserves. The apartment's size is advertised on the booking website and the footprint downstairs is the same as upstairs. The en-suite is a shower-room. I've never advertised that there was a bath. I have always been apologetic about the items that caused you offense when you arrived and if they had been brought to my attention when you arrived I would have removed the items immediately for you. I am always happy to provide extra's too for breakfast (if they are requested). I'm so sorry that you feel I was dismissive about your complaint. I assure you I certainly was not. I can only apologise again that you didn’t like your stay - most of my guests do. It does sadden me and I thank you for pointing out the problems."

Great Apartment, Ideal Location
I booked this apartment for two nights for my husband and I (mainly because I’d bought tickets for us to visit the aerospace museum, just down the road) The last Concorde to have been built and flown is there.....amazing !
We didn’t want to stay in a hotel in Bristol, we are big fans of apartments, even for a stay away of just two nights. This place was simply perfect, it’s part of a large family home in Almondsbury, but has its own entrance and car park space right in front.
Sally the owner had left lots of lovely goodies for two days breakfast and even tea, coffee and biscuits. The apartment was exceptionaly clean and tidy and had everything we needed. We even walked to the village pub for a drink, the menu and food looked good, although it was a little early for us to eat. I wish there were more places like this out there, it’s fantastic accommodation and enables you not to have to spend lots of money on eating out (I made picnics both days for our sightseeing) and cooked supper both evenings. Thanks for a great stay.

Hi Hayley
Thank you so much for the 5* review.
I’m glad you appreciated the complimentary breakfast packs.
It does make running my apartment such a pleasure when I meet such lovely people.
I’m so pleased you found the location so convenient for your stay. The Concorde museum is just about 15 minutes away and a great attraction to visit. I’m pleased you enjoyed the experience.
I hope to meet you again soon.

Worth far more than a 5 Star ....
If you want a true home from home this is the place. We could only stay for one night but wished we could have stayed much much longer. The apartment is stunning and so very well appointed. You will want for nothing if you stay here. The attention to detail and the thoughtful additions give the whole stay a wonderful ambience. We can only give this place the highest recommendation. Thank you Vicky for all your help ...

We are really lucky to have such lovely countryside around us yet be within close proximity to market towns, Spa towns and cities. There are some great places of interest to visit: Spa towns: Bath and Cheltenham. If you like horse racing Cheltenham, Bath and Chepstow have regular meets. We have some fabulous historical towns & castles near too: Thornbury, Berkeley and Chepstow. National Trust buildings too are close by: Ozleworth House, Tyntesfield House and Dyrham Park, to name a few. We are surrounded by the beautiful hills of: The Cotswolds, The Mendips & The Wye Valley. It's just a great base.

A car is recommended as this will give you the independence and versatility of when and where you wish to visit. However, there is a bus stop at the top of the lane (just 50 yards away) and buses run regularly along the A 38 to Bristol and Gloucester. Bristol Parkway Train Station is 15-20 minute taxi drive.
