    Feels like you’ve stepped back in time! The garden is beautiful and our room was very comfortable with a separate but private bathroom. Breakfast was served in the orangery which was a great setting on a sunny morning. So much more restful than staying in Bath itself. George and Jane were also amazing hosts and very welcoming.

    Nothing in particular.

    A house full of charm and character, in a quiet location on the outskirts of Bath. We had our own lounge room, bedroom and bathroom overlooking the garden. Breakfast was included and was served in the orangery every morning. Several old pubs and places to eat are conveniently located nearby. Bus route into Bath city centre also nearby.

    Jane and George are wonderful hosts and have decorated the house amazingly well. Would highly recommend this place over others - very tastefully done. It's accessible via public transport too and is located close to Solsbury hill for a quick hike

    My only complaint would be the lack of carpeting, which meant we would often hear people moving about in the room above us. It was a bit of a shame but didn't keep us awake.

    Jane and George were absolutely lovely, and their attention and care was what really made the stay special. The breakfasts were very fresh and tasty. The house itself is stunning, and the garden is beautifully maintained and such a joy to explore. The room was clean and decorated with both era-appropriate decor as well as paintings made by Jane herself, which were gorgeous! There are local amenities 5 minutes down the road with everything you would need, set in a idyllic countryside town. Overall, an excellent B&B that I would thoroughly recommend.

    Although the apartment was roomy, older people should be aware that one has to climb fairly steep stairs to visit the bathroom. The other drawback is that the road is narrow but surprisingly busy at times, which makes leaving the small carpark a little difficult.

    The owners were very friendly and the breakfast was very good. The place is conveniently situated for visiting Bath and at the same time is in the countryside.

    There was nothing not to like

    We had a lovely stay at Dolphin House. The room was very spacious with lovely furniture that matched the decor of the room. The bed was very comfortable and we both had a lovely sleep. We had our own private bathroom which was perfect. We're not usually fans of continental breakfast but having tried it here we are both converted. It was amazing! We are already planning our next stay. The hosts were lovely, so warm a d friendly.

    Rural location, homely, intimate, building retains its charming old world style, not over-modernised, hosts attentive to our particular needs also allowing plenty of privacy. We went in December, warm and comfortable. Enormous healthy breakfast. Parking space provided, hostess has some of her excellent artwork for sale.
