United KingdomCottage is beautiful. Nice little touches made it special. Amazing garden with a summerhouse/patio/barbecue at the bottom beside the river. Very peaceful and relaxing. Lots of wildlife, birds, squirrels, moorhens on the river. A truly wonderful place.
United KingdomEverything, perfect setup, perfect location, lovely huge garden. Love the summer house and the babbling brook at the end of the garden makes it all so peaceful. And the huge claw foot bath is an added bonus.
United KingdomThere was a really thoughtful welcome gift on arrival that we enjoyed throughout our stay! The instructions for the fire were really straightforward as well. We loved the fact you were in the beautiful countryside (the garden view is fantastic too!) and could still walk into Bath. Also the actual bath was very luxurious and something you don’t get in a lot of properties I looked at.

Company information
I have lived in the Midford Valley near Bath for 45 years in Tucking Mill Manor. I find that the location, wildlife and environment is unsurpassable. You must really come and see it for yourself! My team and I run this small holiday business from our own home just outside Bath We own all the properties we let and that includes 3 cottages at Tucking Mill 12 mins Bath city centre and 2 luxury apartments in the city itself. We converted all the properties over the last 2-3 years to the standard that we enjoy when we are away. As a self catering operation, our strategy is to ensure our guests have as seamless communication as possible and only need to contact us if there is a problem.. We work hard to constantly upgrade our properties to ensure the Gold Standard is maintained and as close to home from home as possible.
Property information
Brooks' View is a very popular 4-star Gold luxury self-catering cottage located just 12 minutes away from Bath. Guests, often couples, enjoy the romantic perks of a 1200 pocket sprung king-sized bed, a wood-burning stove in the lounge (we provide logs and kindling), and comfy sofas and throws. You can also enjoy stunning views across the Midford Valley on the private terrace, summerhouse or gardens which run down to the Midford Brook. The spacious bathroom benefits from a Victorian roll top Claw bath and a large walk-in shower.
Neighbourhood information
Brooks' View is in the heart of the Midford Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering the perfect Romantic Retreat. It is just a stone's throw from the West of England Falconry, where you can enjoy hawk walks, and is just a short walk from the Two Tunnels and Sustrans Route 24 - so it's a must-visit destination for couples who love walking and cycling. The cottage also has a private garden, terrace and summer house for those pleasant evenings spent relaxing and taking in the views. Fly-fishing enthusiasts will also love the private stretch of the Midford Brook, where guests of our cottages receive exclusive fishing rights. Two superb country pubs offering lunch and dinner are just a ten minute walk away, and an award winning deli is just a little further up the hill. Furthermore, Brooks' View has private on-site parking, making it easy to get back and forth to Bath city centre, just a 12 minute drive away. We also have a deal with the local taxi company, and buses run regularly to Combe Down, which is about a 15 minute walk. Outdoor activities like boating on the canal and riding at Wellow are also no further than 2 miles from the cottage, so there's plenty to do!
