Our stay at Frairy Wood was excellent just a short drive away from Bath city centre we had a wonderful time. The people were so helpful and kind. My son had his birthday there and they brought him a little ciossant with a candle in. The location is to die for, truly scenic and wonderful. There are horses in the field and you are allowed to go and stroke them, they are very friendly. The rooms were fantastic and spotless. Also the bathroom was truly divine. This hotel is by far better than any Hilton or Mariott.

The size of the room-you could party in it and the ensuite too and all with mod cons too! Very friendly hosts, good english breakfast and a swimming pool, what more could you want. We'll definitely be back with the rest of the family!! All good so nothing to comment on!

Location and the house was amazing. Breakfast was very good. Sadly I couldn't use the pool outside and the tennis court because of the bad weather. There was a pump working constantly from around 7AM every time someone was using a bath or shower. So it was waking us up every 10 minutes.

The facilities at Friary Wood were wonderful. The guest house is located in a wooded area outside of Bath. The room was very large and roomy and accommodated the four of us easily. The beds were comfortable and the room clean. The bathroom was unbelievable with a large tub and shower. Debbie was a great host and provided a wonderful breakfast each morning. The guest house is located outside of Bath and the bus service is rather expensive. However, Debbie showed us a way that we could walk through the woods to get to the train station which was a more pleasant and less expensive way to travel. Otherwise we needed taxis to get in and out of Bath. I'd strongly suggest renting a car if planning to stay at Friary Wood.

We chose the hotel because we could fit 5 of us in the room. The room was huge and we didn't feel squashed at all. The bathroom was as big as some of the rooms we'd stayed in already. We wished we booked for longer... We would have liked to have checked in earlier - just to drop our bags off and maximise our time in Bath. We also got lost trying to find the place using the map directions. It would have been much clearer if it had said on the a36 from Bath to Warminster or something like that. Glad we'd tried to find it earlier rather than later that night as the entrance is poorly marked from Bath - especially in the dark...

It's a very quiet place in the countryside near Bath. It has big rooms and a lot of space outside to walk and relax. You must have a car and manually enter Lat/Long coordinates in your satnav to reach it, otherwise it's very difficult to find. The hosts are nice but they have put all around the house some strange puzzling messages like "be nice or go home".

Friary Wood is a lovely country house hotel, the rooms are spacious and very comfortable with a lovely view of the private gardens. The staff were extremely helpful giving good recommendations of places to eat and they served a great breakfast. The hotel is only a 10 minute drive from Bath which is a great city for a short break.

Massive bedroom and bathroom facilities, the biggest and amongst the best we encountered on holiday. The owner was very helpful and not too obtrusive. He recommended a lovely old hotel, 17th century ?, for dinner which was only about 5-10 minutes drive from Friary Wood and well worth the visit We didn't get to check out the grounds or the other facilities such as the pool as we were only staying overnight. Could have easily stayed for a couple more days.
