Susan August 2024

“Lovely cottage in a lovely location.”

So convenient for the park and ride in to Bath. Very welcoming owners and villagers. We especially enjoyed the lemon drizzle cake and steak night at the Ring O Bellls in the village. We found the beds very comfy but the sofas unfortunately not. As urban dwellers we appreciated the silence and the peaceful countryside location but found driving round the narrow country lanes that access Priston rather stressful,

Aimee August 2024

“We had a lovely stay at Cider Press Cottage.”

The village was beautiful with some lovely walks in the surrounding countryside. The cottage was in a very convenient area with Bath, Bristol and Longleat a short drive away. The cottage was comfortable and clean and the welcome lemon drizzle cake was yummy. A great cottage that we would highly recommend. My daughter wants to go back next year.

- Aimee, August 2024

Deborah August 2024

“Lovely cottage and the owner was very welcoming and baked us a welcome cake!”

. Quiet location and perfect for exploring Bath, cheddar & Glastonbury. Only one small comment, the sofa cushions are a bit thin but otherwise lovely place.

- Deborah, August 2024

Thank you for your feedback which is always valuable, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay and exploring the area, and the cake sounds very tempting alone! We look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Best Wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner
Ine July 2024

“Location was good and the fresh cake a nice gesture.”

But that's as far as the good gets. The sofas were worn out to the point where you could not sit on them. There was no extractor hood in the kitchen and utensils were not clean. The mattresses were also worn out and left us with back pain. Worst of all the downstairs area had lots of woodlice. Our kids were horrified. Heating was on a timer and completely off the first day (but the owner put it on after we asked). Do not recommend.

- Ine, July 2024

Thank you for taking the time to provide this review. All feedback is important to us as it helps us to make improvements going forward. We are sorry that this experience has not been fully positive or that the cleanliness of utensils was not up to our usual high standards.These are always checked between guests and we can only apologise if something was missed on this occasion. We are disappointed to hear that you did not sleep comfortably - our mattresses are not worn out and are of high quality. Most guests, even quite recently, say how comfortable they find them. You will appreciate it is very difficult to choose bedding in holiday accommodation that suits every guests needs. We can assure you that our sofas are not worn out as we recently had new cushions made for them and upholstery work done on them in late April this year. We do not have an extractor fan hood above the cooker, but we do have windows that can be easily opened nearby. We try to remove as many wood lice as possible, but being a 200 year old stone country cottage it is not always possible to eliminate them completely. Again, apologies. They are, however, completely harmless. Although the heating was not turned on for your arrival, there is a wood burner in the property with a limitless supply of wood. However, the heating was turned on for you at the first opportunity and there are also 2 electric fan heaters available in the bedrooms. Cider Press Cottage is such a lovely property in a delightful location, as reflected by the experience of many previous guests, and we're sorry you weren't able to fully enjoy it. Property Owner
Lisa June 2024

“Beautiful cottage in a lovely village.”

The front garden is a sun trap in the evening and would be good to have more seating or a small table. I would update the transport info as no buses from the village! But park and ride only a short drive away. Beautiful touch with the wild flowers and cake.

- Lisa, June 2024

Thank you for the feedback with regards to your stay at Cider Press Cottage. We are so pleased to hear you had a wonderful stay with us and thank you for the feedback. We will pass on your comments to the Owner with regards to the bus times and outdoor seating. We hope to welcome you again in the future. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

“We had a lovely stay at Cider Press Cottage.”

We had everything we needed for our stay and Lucy was very accommodating providing cot/highchair for our toddler.

“The property is lovely.”

The layout is perfect. Absolutely spotlessly clean. Plenty of parking right outside the front door. Comfortable beds. Kitchen well stocked with equipment and appliances. Property overall warm and cosy. Water pressure in shower could be better but other than that I would highly recommend a stay in this lovely cottage.

Sian March 2023

“The cottage was really lovely, very clean and well equipped, and very tastefully furnished.”

It felt like a home from home. The beds were really comfortable and there were plenty of towels. The location in Priston was great - the cottage was very quiet, and in beautfiul countryside but close to Bath, so we drove ten minutes to the Park and Ride where there were frequent buses into Bath. Priston itself is a lovely small village. The host Lucy was really helpful and we really enjoyed the beautiful lemon drizzle cake awaiting us on arrival! We hope to return ad I highly recommend this cottage.

- Sian, March 2023

Thank you for your lovely comments. We are so pleased you enjoyed your comfortable stay and the ease of travelling to the beautiful city of Bath to explore. We hope to welcome you back again. Best wishes Manor Cottages. Property Owner

Upon arrival we found a delicious cake - thank you! Very comfortable beds. The cottage is ideally placed for exploring the area, close to a park and ride into Bath, about an hour from Longleat and lots of places to visit. Would stay again!

Graham October 2022

“It's a lovely cottage and a nice drizzle cake on arrival and owner saying hello.”

I've only given 3* though as owner came in whilst we were out to shut a window and we also had to let her and an epc inspector in for about 15 minutes whilst there and with no warning. I value privacy greatly and this marred the overall good experience.

- Graham, October 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We do apologise that you were disturbed during your stay. The owner has advised that, unfortunately, she did not receive any warning that the EPC inspector was visiting. This inspection is required to meet all the legal certified requirements of running a holiday cottage. She is also sorry that you were upset that the window was closed. With rain and stormy weather in the forecast and you not being in the Cottage, she wanted to avoid rain damage which I hope you can understand. We hope that you were able to enjoy the rest of your stay. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

Karen May 2022

“It was all REALLY lovely.”

.... but if I were to be super critical, I’d say a mirror downstairs would reflect some light into the lounge and be of use as a final self check before you go out the front door. GENERAL FEEDBACK TO SYKES - Perhaps you would explain why one can’t get into the properties until 4pm because of thorough cleaning needed to be done by the proprietor (re: Covid), when guests still have to leave at 10am, now having to remove bedding and thoroughly clean (re: Covid). Prices have gone up, one gets less time at the property and the customer is doing the work! When I stay in an hotel I don’t have to take off my bedding when I leave!

- Karen, May 2022

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your comments regarding the lighting and have take this into account. We do our best to accomodate an early check-in time, but sometimes this is not always possible when we have a larger amount of properties to turn over. We kindly ask that you could remove the bedding in order to keep our housekeepers safe. If you are unable to, that is not a problem at all. Property Owner
Nicholas April 2022

“An absolute gem!”

Very comfortable, well appointed and exceptionally clean. So pleased to have met our hosts, who were welcoming, delightful and discrete. The property is also I. A beautiful location - quiet and rural with plenty of opportunities for lovely walks on the surrounding countryside, but also only about 5 minutes from the park and ride service into Bath. We didn’t manage to meet Dylan the donkey in the nearby field … so I guess we’ll have to visit again in the future!

- Nicholas, April 2022

Thank you so much for providing us with such lovely feedback! We are so glad to hear that you had a great stay at Cider Press Cottage. We can't wait to welcome you back the property in the future, and hope that you meet Dylan the donkey as well! Thank you again for providing us with your feedback. Property Owner

Loraine November 2021

“Comfortable and well designed cottage in a lovely peaceful village location.”

Very comfortable beds. It was really cold weather but the cottage soon warmed up and having the woodburner made it extra cosy. The locals were really friendly and welcoming, as were the owners. There are plenty of good local walks and getting into Bath is very easy, we used the Park & Ride which was quick and efficient. We shall definitely be booking here again.

Michael November 2021

“We had an excellent relaxing week at Cider Press Cottage.”

A badly needed holiday for us and it was so peaceful. The owners added extra touches, such as flowers in each room, milk in the fridge and a wonderful home baked cake! Also lots of logs and kindling for the wood burner. There were some very interesting books - we wished we could have stayed longer and read more! The cottage was ideal for exploring the area, good walks and within easy reach of Bath, Wells, Frome and others. Plus the owners were very friendly and helpful. The pub in the village, within walking distance had excellent quality meals and were inexpensive. We would highly recommend this very comfortable cottage for your holidays.

Allen October 2020

“We had a really great stay at Cider Press Cottage.”

Welcomed with a friendly smile and delicious lemon drizzle cake, we found the accommodation a wonderful and comfortable retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. We particularly enjoyed the wood burning stove and the grounds. My son loved playing in the stream and feeding the donkeys. Simon and his wife have a beautiful home! Feel free to publish this feedback. Below is a note to the owner. One note to the owner who may not be aware. There seems to be a slight woodlouse issue (could be the time of year?). During the night, there were hundreds on the wooden table outside and the external walls and door. Some made their way inside the house. Not a massive issue for us but they might freak some people out to think about the possibility of one crawling over them at night. We did find a couple on the bed!

- Allen, October 2020
Alison October 2020

“Lovely, cosy cottage in a peaceful village location and yet just a 10-15 minute drive from Bath.”

We were pleasantly surprised to find a lemon drizzle cake waiting for us on our arrival (delicious!) and the cottage itself was very well presented and clean. The weather was rubbish for us (didn't stop us going out on long walks) but snuggling up in the evening with a lump of lemon drizzle and the wood burner going was a very pleasant way to dry off. Very friendly and considerate owners who, on introduction, offered some valuable advice about the area for us and our 2 kids. The Ring O' Bells pub is well worth a visit for a meal, friendly staff and good food. The cottage is roughly a 40 minute drive from Longleat which was a great day out for us and the kids. I would certainly recommend this cottage and we hope to visit again next year!

- Alison, October 2020

What lovely comments! We really pleased to hear you've had such a wonderful stay..hopefully the weather will be kinder next time! Property Owner

Helen July 2020

“Such a lovely cottage!”

Priston is an ideal location to explore the beautiful countryside but close enough to enjoy the sights of Bath. Every little detail has been thought of in this cottage which is a comfy, quiet haven. Don’t miss the donkeys in the back field, and the owners are close by to offer helpful advice and tips when they’re needed. Can’t recommend it highly enough, and we’d love to come back and stay again

Nick October 2019

“The main thing we were concerned about was that we had no access to the heating controls.”

When we arrived it was very cold and we couldn't turn the heating on. We contacted the owner with the numbers provided but couldn't get hold of her. We later found out (the next day) she was in USA and luckily her neighbour/house sitter was feeding her animals and was able to assist us into unlocking a cupboard which had the controls in. A few little things were: The toilet seat was loose and moved, it needed attention. The cottage slept 4 but only had 2 small tumblers? The larger bedroom had been made up for a double bed but had single duvets which is a little strange for sleeping in.

- Nick, October 2019

Many thanks for your feedback, we will look into the issues raised as we want to ensure all guests have the best holiday possible. Property Owner

“Cider press cottage is a lovely place to spend a holiday when sight seeing in Somerset.”

The decor and facilities are first class and the owner Lucy made sure that we had everything we needed to make our stay pleasant and comfortable. The village is a good place to start many walks from and there are loads of local books and maps in the cottage. The village pub does excellent food, and to stock up there is a Sainsburys approx. four miles away. We would recommend this cottage to anyone.

“This was by far the best place we stayed at during our trip.”

Our hosts were delightful, considerate and welcoming. The property actually exceeded our expectations as did the village itself. Lucy greeted us sympathetically with freshly baked flapjacks (clearly her specialty) which was so very much appreciated after an unexpectedly long trip from London. We loved the donkeys braying, and the horses passing on their way into the village from the front door. We were drawn into Ring of Bells with their great food, beer, scrumpy and easy conversation. The people of the village are welcoming and patient even when explaining the intricacies of cricket which was a delight to watch behind the church (also worth a stop) on the pitch. We enjoyed many walks in the area, touring Bath, and seeing stone circles. It is an enchanting place.\ We pretty much loved everything, however it was the peace that descended onto the village which seemed to permeate through to our bones. \ The property is very comfortable and very well cared for. An absolutely outstanding property.\ Moira Schmidt, June 2016\

“It's a beautiful cosy cottage in a rural village surrounded by nature.”

The host, Lucy, is super welcoming and even gave us some delicious freshly baked flapjacks. The cottage has all the amenities you'd need to have a comfortable stay, a true home from home. Oh, and the most comfy beds I've ever slept in!

“We loved it!”

My family gave me an A+ for finding and booking this cottage!\ It was quiet, cosy and had everything we needed. The owners were just lovely and let our kids help feed their donkeys. It was wonderful to return to this cottage as our little sanctuary after busy days sight-seeing. We used the Park and Ride to get into Bath, which was very easy and good value. Thankyou for a lovely place to stay and a delicious cake too!\ \

“We had a wonderful time in Priston!”

It was the perfect space for a relaxing and cozy Christmas vacation. We were able to make a full Christmas dinner in the kitchen, rest by the wood fire, and go on long walks right from the front door. We also made many day trips out from this central location, including the Cotswolds, Bath, and the Jurassic Coast. The cottage is adorable and located in a quiet village that is only a short drive from the city. Lucy and Simon were very friendly and welcomed us with a delicious homemade cake. We couldn't have had a more perfect stay

The property

Perched on the outskirts of the historic city of Bath in Somerset, is this fantastic two-bedroom cottage, Cider Press Cottage.

Thoughtfully furnished and decorated, Cider Press Cottage makes for a chic and roomy country getaway for couples or a family of four.

This lovely tiny cottage is every bit the rural hideaway; it was built in the 18th-century and is located on the grounds of the owners' gorgeous mansion.

The cottage is private but still close to the countryside; a stroll down the path takes you to the village and the Ring O'Bells, the local tavern.

The interior's bright colours and stylish furnishings give it a contemporary feel, yet the many original period details keep the quaint atmosphere intact.

Its convenient location within easy reach of downtown Bath or a pleasant stroll from the doorstep into the surrounding countryside, makes this home stand out among the others.

In the months of July, August, and September, we only accept Friday arrivals for 7-night stays.

(For any other check-in/stay dates/duration combinations, please inquire).
