Lovely Georgian rowhouse made into a wonderful upscale b&b. Very nicely decorated with historic Georgian details and big high ceilings. Easy couple of block walk to the center of things at Bath Abbey. Did not try the breakfast on offer but sounded like there was a good variety of choices. Would definitely return.

A charming hotel with an amazing breakfast service. We also liked that it was a bit away from the city (only a 5 minute walk) so it was quieter.
