An unique experience staying in the cellars for only one night. It was very dark and very quiet. We were attending a gig in the Bristol Beacon, we drove in and back, it was an easy drive in and out of Bristol which took about 10-15 mins each way, although the host advised us that previous visitors caught a bus in and used an uber to get back. Because of the steps down to the cellars I would not advise anyone with mobility issues to stay here
Pros:
the owner is very accommodating, we arrived pretty late yet he is still happily wait for us and show us around the property. The property itself is very charming with old exposed brick and country furniture but with a twist of modern appliances making my stay as comfortable and homey. The kitchen is complete with everything I need for cooking especially love the tiny compact dishwasher. We wander around the backyard/garden and enjoy morning coffee on the tree house.
Cons:
The bed is a bit uncomfortable to sleep on; bit springy and wobbly. The property is not thoroughly clean, we found hairs on the cabinet surface in the toilet and coffee grinds on kitchen counter. The slippers given has worn off (the floor is very cold!)
Wonderful historic property. We had a great few days here. Well equipped with everything you need. Lovely walks from the front door and very peaceful. Parking a plus and Nick is a very good host.
The cellar may not be for everyone but I loved it. Spacious, quiet, well equipped with additional kitchen extras, comfortable, good wifi, own parking space and a friendly and knowledgeable host Nick. It was cool when I arrived but soon warmed up. The area is good for hiking and the Clifton Suspension Bridge is just a 30 mins walk. Also has a good pub nearby along with a bus stop to get into Bristol.
Sadly following a great check in from the host I found that the room smelt musty and damp. I couldnât get warm despite three heaters on. In the morning my fresh clothes smelt musky and Iâve had to wash everything on my return home. Not ideal for a winter stay, maybe itâs ok in the summer.
