Fishponds Retreat Homestay

Absolutely lovely stay in a very clean, comfortable and quiet house, it was really convenient location for all the things we wanted to do, the bed was super comfortable, lovely warm shower There were lots of lovely books and things dotted around - absolutely couldn’t fault it Host was fab - great communication Self check in with keys in safety box by front door which was great as we arrived late due to road closures

Nothing it was amazing

Great location. I used to live nearby and this is in my favourite road in the area. Great for the high street and the park

Nothing. All good

Location and arrangement

Had to carry bags to 2nd floor

The host, Pommy, was wonderfully welcoming, accommodating and warm and friendly. The loft room was quirky with spectacular views. It was also immaculately clean and comfortable and every need was taken care of ( high end toiletries, full high brand hot drink options, toaster, microwave etc.) Pommy and her wonderful son were extremely discreet and made me feel like I was visiting good friends. The house was beautiful and set in a very quiet location with such a lovely calm atmosphere that permeated my visit from the friendly, warm start as Pommy showed me to my room.

I didn’t stay long enough but plan to return frequently and often!

Great location close to motorway, Eastville park and Purdown hill. Quiet area. Nice to have a fridge, toaster, kettle.

Parking can be difficult.

Great location near a huge park to go for a walk after work Very helpful owner Pommy and made me feel very welcome Spacious room in the loft area of her home with a fabulous en suite bathroom with lovely shower toilet and basin Little fridge, microwave and kettle Small TV and free use of WiFi Fabulous view from roof windows A fabulous peaceful place to stay Thank you Pommy

Very small detail but it would look even better with clean roof windows - these are easy to clean as the tilt nearly fully to open This was the only point that I marked down on

Great service

Excellent location! Quiet residential street, walking distance from the bus stop into Bristol, AND from a large park and an attractive riverside walk. A kettle and minifridge in the room, along with tea/coffee/sugar/milk and all the plates and utensils you would need to have a meal. The host was gracious and helpful, and even lent me a tin opener when I realised my tin didn't have a ring-pull lid. Lovely view from the windows...

... as another guest mentioned, the view is a bit obscured by dirty skylights (but they must be impossible to clean!). Watch out for the floor covering - the natural matting is a bit rough on bare feet, so bring some slippers or keep your shoes on.
