Stunning Country Farm House between Bristol & Bath

A really beautiful property with ample space for the 12 of us that stayed there. All the bedrooms were good sized and shown as in the pictures. The bathrooms were clean, as was the kitchen, and the living spaces were great for us. 
The hot tub was a lovely bonus, and the provided robes, slippers, and towels were such a great touch. 
Check in was easy, and the surrounding area is so beautiful (we did a walk around and the views are stunning). It's a really peaceful location, and we would definitely stay again.

An Incredible House, with everything we could ask for

We had a lovely weekend at Lydes farm. The house was beautiful, clean with all the amenities we needed for our stay. The host went above & beyond to make our weekend & when we flagged there wasn’t a coffee cafetière, they dropped one off on the Friday evening. We would definitely stay again and recommend to friends. Many thanks
