Avon Spring

Holiday Rental Description

While this beautiful garden apartment is right in the middle of the city, you wouldn’t know it. Wonderfully peaceful thanks to its private entrance away from the main street and its proximity to Henrietta Park (a one-minute walk), there’s a calm serenity to this boutique Georgian home. You can tell that it’s been worked on by an award-winning architectural firm and that your hosts, Silvia and Sohrab, have created something truly special here – the upstairs living area is full of original features (like the fireplace and arched windows) while the decor is contemporary and chic. Make yourself comfortable on the sofa as you people-watch with a glass of wine, or catch up on work at the cosy desk space – better yet, peruse the tourist leaflets provided and plan the next day’s activities. Descend the bespoke Italian staircase and you’ll find yourself in the sleek kitchen where your hosts have provided a continental breakfast. Enjoy your pastries and cereal in the glass-framed dining room or outside in the private garden while you catch some rays. When it comes to relaxation, your hosts have gone above and beyond by dressing the luxury beds in Egyptian cotton sheets (there’s even a pillow selection between soft or medium-firm) and they’re more than happy to arrange a spa day for you at the nearby five-star hotel. When you’re not soaking up the refined atmosphere of your classy pad, go out and explore your surroundings. Cross Pulteney Bridge over the Avon (a three-minute walk), see where Vanity Fair was filmed at Laura Place Fountain (a two-minute walk) visit Bath Abbey (a seven-minute walk) and stroll around the Royal Crescent (a fifteen-minute walk). Factor in the countless restaurants and shops on your front step and you’ve got everything you need for a blissful Bath stay.
