Clean comfortable and tastefully decorated theres a small car park at the rear and its a pleasant 10 minute stroll into Bath.Breakfast isn't included anymore which is fine by me and it reflects on the price of your stay I think. Theres Tea and Coffee making facilities in your room to set you up for your day.Highly recommended 👌

I had an amazing time at the Avon guest house! The room was clean and charming. The location is fantastic, the room is nice, and the service is great! I was shocked at how close it was to the town center. It was also walkable to and from the train station. Julie is very helpful in mapping out the area, giving suggestions, and ensuring a comfortable stay. If I'm in the area again, I would definitely stay there, and would recommend it to anyone looking for a place.

We had room #1 on the 2nd floor - top of the house - double bed with a view of the main road n the hill at the back - 2 heaters - small but neat bathroom en-suite - usual tea n coffee maker - 10 min walk from Bath Spa - 15 min walk to the Roman Baths (main attraction) - so close to hundreds of places to eat and drink - spoilt for choice - wud recommend the free walking tours by Mayor of Bath, The Raven ( a pub), Scallop Shell ( seafood restaurant- a tad expensive but worth it). - Georgian Tea Rooms for scones , Bath Buns and Tea - 4 min from the Bath Cricket Club - a really beautiful ground

We arrived after hours but Julie was there welcoming us. With her warm personality plus providing us with info on what to see and restaurants, Julie is an excellent host. The location is so convenient to Bath and the room very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again and have recommended it to our friends.
