Wilkes Farm

When looking to visit Bath with a friend, I found the hotel prices in Bath were extortionate, so opted to stay at nearby Wilkes Farm, which charges much more reasonable prices. It's only a ten minute drive to the park and ride, and very easy to find, so saved us lots of money to spend on having fun out and about in Bath.|| ||We received a warm greeting from lovely Rachel on our arrival, who made us feel very welcome. Our room was missing an item or two, such as a second bath towel and teabags, but Rachel quickly put this straight when we told her. She couldn't do enough for us during our short stay, from checking we had our Wifi sorted, to giving us advice over breakfast about attractions in Bath.||||The accommodation at Wilkes Farm is comfortable, clean and quaint. Our room was very large with a beautiful view, and it was nice to have an armchair each to watch TV from after trotting around Bath all day! The room was initially a bit cold, but Rachel put the heating on for us and it was soon nice and toasty. The beds were very comfortable and the shower worked well. The lovely peaceful surroundings made for a good night's sleep. Breakfast was nice and I thought the fruit salad with fresh blueberries which was waiting for us when we came down was a lovely touch. Would have liked some baked beans with the cooked breakfast, but that's just me being picky! :-) ||||Rachel's affection for her home shows in the way she talks about it, and this gave a nice vibe to our chat over breakfast. The surrounding countryside is very pretty and would offer a nice walk in itself. ||||Overall, I enjoyed my visit so much that I'm going back in a couple of weeks with my husband. Looking forward to another pleasant stay at Wilkes Farm :-)

Stayed for one night, lovely clean en suite room with a very comfortable king size bed.||Gorgeous views of cows in field etc. Floorboards rather creaky but this is all part of the wonderful character of this 17th century farmhouse....along with stunning huge flagstone flooring, huge inglenook fireplace and spiral wooden staircase. If you want a slice of quintissential England, this is the place to come. Delicious breakfast from our lovely very friendly host Rachel.

We spent two nights at this lovely 17th century farmhouse. Rachael was a wonderful host. Her breakfasts were delicious and we enjoyed the views and the tranquillity of the setting. She also told us lots about the local area and the history of the farm. It is ideally situated just minutes by car from the Park and Ride into the centre of Bath.

Stayed here for a long weekend to visit the lovely town of Bath, just 10 min drive away. What a fabulous old farm house, hosts were so welcoming with a cup of tea and slice of home made cake, rooms very large with en-suite bathroom, TV and tea and coffee facilities, fabulous view from window and spotlessly clean. A quality cooked breakfast, great price! Great country pub within walking distance, good food. ||Will return!

Very beautiful scenery. The host is a really lovely lady. Great location, 7 miles from bath and 10 from Bristol. Very quiet village with great walking options. Plus the breakfast is divine. 5*

We have been a few times and enjoyed it. The family are lovely and friendly and the location is gorgeous. We stayed in the farmhouse.||The last couple of times though we felt the cleanliness had gone down hill. Don't get me wrong, we are really sorry to say this and we are not hygiene freaks but it was very off putting. The towels smelt of wet dog (we love dogs and have nothing against them), dirty bath& toilet with poor shower volume and whilst we always enjoyed breakfast, even the table, condiments, crockery and cutlery looked grubby. Dog hair, we surmised, also present on the crockery etc. So sorry because they are such lovely people and very welcoming.

What a place to stay - the farmhouse is full of character! Beautiful views all around with a great hostess. Definitely a hidden gem of the South Gloucestershire countryside...and only a 15 minute drive away from Bath!

Wonderful.Easy to find. Farm super,room cosy and extremely clean.plenty of parking space in a wonderful setting. Rachel the host so welcoming and homely which makes all the difference.So convenient as Bath is literally 6 miles down the road. Absolutely delightful
