Bodkin House Hotel  

We were looking for a hotel that wasn't offering anything too extravagant for New Year's Eve and this fitted the bill. The bar was very welcoming and well priced. The huge log fire made it very comfortable. The room itself was spotless and also very comfortable. We chose a Superior Room and this was spacious with a large en-suite bathroom. An additional heater was put in the room without us asking for it, to make sure that it was warm enough, but there needn't have been anything to worry about as it was very warm. Dinner was taken in the restaurant, but we could have had the same menu in the bar if we had wanted. The varied choices and fresh local produce were wonderful and made the whole experience very enjoyable. Breakfast the following morning was ideal and offered a wide choice again.

The water system is very loud and each flush of the toilet caused a major disruption! The Restaurant could have been presented in a more sophisticated way. The rustic tables are fine for breakfast, but for a New Year's Eve dinner it would have been better to have had tablecloths and 'silver service' presentation.

Very warm and homely feel to the hotel with a fantastic open fire and a great bar area. Good menu selection and great food.

The TV remote didn't work!

We received a friendly welcome. The room was spacious and attractive - and included a full cooked breakfast The public rooms were delightful - comfortable and very elegant.

A very comfortable and welcoming place to stay.It was the kind of hotel I like to imagine at different times of the year ie. The setting and location in the different seasons.I Certainly hope I shall go there again and I would recommend it to other people.

My room was spacious and comfortable. Restaurant and bar were welcoming and food was good. Pretty gardens. Relaxing

Good food

We were a little disappointed. The owners were very pleasant and welcoming on arrival. However, the rooms we were given were very cold and the bed in the ground floor room felt damp. The bed was most uncomfortable and was in fact just a 'hideaway' bed that folds away. The bathroom was freezing and the shower not much warmer! We were provided with an electric heater which did help a little. The wardrobes had not been cleaned properly, there were dead spiders and an item of clothing from the last occupants still in there.The bar area was very pleasant and they very happily provided some late night drinks on our return from our party. Breakfast was pleasant, adequate but a little greasy for my liking. All in all, a beautiful location, pleasant staff, but more attention is needed in the rooms.

Bed was very uncomfortable - neither of us got much sleep. Food was not great.

Very nice evening meal.

A very pleasant 2 nights at Bodkin. Although very busy, the staff were friendly and efficient. The hotel is set in a lovely area, and was an ideal base for our trip to Bath.Our room was comfortable and had all the facilities we required, but best of all was the superb food! Compliments to the Chef and everyone else at Bodkin.

The bar area was really nice with good food & service. The rooms were nice & the reception staff very friendly.

The heating wasn't working so the room was chilly & there was no hot water for a bath or shower in one of the rooms I booked as it didn't have a power shower.

Very nice rooms - comfortable, big and newly renovated.

Petty France can be difficult to find - doesnt show on many maps. Also, no country pubs in the town intself.
