    Nothing at all!

    I don't usually make reviews but this property was truly exceptional! Our welcome was relaxed but professional, informative and with a thorough explanation of the property, room facilities and arrangements for breakfast. We were able to choose our breakfast time and the system in place to organise dining room space made breakfast a peaceful and lovely experience- we felt very spoiled!! Breakfast itself was huge with a wonderful comprehensive array of foods which were beautifully presented- pastries and breads etc were presented like an afternoon tea! There were very high end jams, honey and soft fruits etc... cooked breakfast was cooked to order and again a very high standard. Itself The property has been carefully and lovingly restored with its history and character in mind. Our host gave us a fascinating history of the house and had gone to the trouble of having resources in the sitting room for further reading if interested (and the history was very interesting!). There was a thoughtful honesty box which we didn’t use but thought was a lovely touch. Attention to detail from the communal rooms to the bedroom (ours was the George room) and bathroom were fabulous. Our host when asked gave us really useful advice on the local pubs/places to eat and was spot on with the recommendations.. we came away for some time somewhere a little bit special and this property was absolutely definitely that and more!!! Do not hesitate.. book…This is an absolute gem! Thank you for making our trip such a special one!

    The room was ideal for an overnight stay. It was immaculate and very comfortable. If we stayed again we would book the apartment next door which was amazing. The host's were really nice and friendly.

    Beautiful building and garden. The furniture & decoration is very traditional and comfortable. Breakfast was superb. Freshly cooked full English on top of fruit, yoghurts, cereals, croissants, pastries and toast. Our host was very friendly and full of useful information and of course Fergus the dog was adorable

    Very old property, 1700's so the plumbing was extremely noisy, but this was no fault of the owners.

    Breakfast was exceptional, high quality & delicious. The little extras & attention to detail was superb. Probably our best ever breakfast in a B&B & we have tried a few! Very comfortable bed, Smart TV & free off road parking which is always a bonus.

    Breakfast was some little boxes of cereal and milk. But I imagine this was because I was staying in the annexe rather than the house.

    Only a slight improvement could be a new mattress as it was rather soft for us. Otherwise perfect.

    Phil was very welcoming and friendly from the moment we arrived. He carried our bags up to the room for us and explained the facilities. The room was very pretty, clean and plenty of tea and coffee etc. The four poster bed was a lovely addition. The breakfast was excellent, everything you could want. Will definitely be back next year to discover more of the lovely city of Bath.

    There was nothing we didn’t like. As stated it’s a property full of character and it’s obviously of an age so with that comes just a few issues that cannot be helped, but nothing of any detriment.

    It was beautiful, it’s a property full of character. I loved the idea of such a small living space, modernised to such a high standard, which was easily utilised as a fully functioning place to stay. Very relaxed and peaceful.

    We had the most wonderful overnight stay at The Old Parsonage. Emilie gave us a warm welcome and some great suggestions of where to eat out in the area if we fancied it. We had been out for a birthday lunch, and felt so at home and comfortable immediately that we didn't end up venturing anywhere. We stayed in one of the self catering studio apartments and had visited the lovely local farm shop down the road en route to get a few supplies for dinner. Everything was spotlessly clean. The kitchenette was well kitted out. We really appreciated the milk in the fridge and coffee and tea, and breakfast oats/cereal on offer. The Old Parsonage has a very relaxing atmosphere and you can't help but feel like you're on holiday as soon as you arrive. We will definitely be back.
