2 bedroom cosy cottage with hot tub in hambrook close to Bristol City Centre

The property was exactly as advertised, the rooms look exactly as the pictures and we would look at this option again.

I think they’ve undersold how close it is by car to things, everything was 15 mins away, didn’t go to Bath this time but that isn’t far either.

Location was perfect. Facilities were great. Wish we were staying longer to fully utilise everything

We had an amazing weekend at the Lodge Cottage, there was so much outside space for our dog, plus the bonus of a hot tub as well. My boys loved the games room with pool and ping pong etc. The lounge was cosy and beds were very comfortable. The location was ideal for what we wanted too. We will definitely come back. Thank you.

Everything

The host was fairly responsive to the issues we raised during our stay and took measures to correct them. The hot tub was a nice facility to have. The proximity to Bristol City Centre.

I picked this property due to the title, description, imagery & facilities listed. As I was booking for a special occasion, I wanted us to stay somewhere we would deem as a treat. Upon arrival, we were met by the host who was still cleaning the property, despite knowing our arrival time. The cottage was extremely cold and it was clear that the portrayal of the property was somewhat different to the reality. The cottage itself, to us, is in need of some upgrades, maintenance and a serious clean. To describe it as luxurious, to me is unrealistic. We found previous guests food & toiletries and even clothing in the cottage. Out of date drinks were left for our consumption, dirty child's bedding provided and very dated facilities (such as the Xbox). The Wi-Fi was unstable which meant the televisions (dependent on an internet connection) continuously froze or stalled. Each item we used in the kitchen, we chose to wash before use and the bed in the main bedroom was very uncomfortable, with the mattress and bedding in serious need of an upgrade. There was no 'guidelines' available for use of facilities in the property which meant a lot of guess work and some of the information sent within the automated pre and post stay messages was outdated, resulting in us having to call the host. Attention to detail clearly lacked. During our stay, we needed to request more towels as only 2 were provided for 2 adults and a child for a 4 night stay, including use of the hot tub. The heating in one room wasn't working which made an entire part of the cottage cold. In an old building in January with a young child staying, I was very upset this hadn't been addressed before our stay by the host, who upon reporting, mentioned it must had been broken by the previous guest and they hadn't noticed. Maybe my expectations of this property were unrealistic but based on the description and amount charged we expected much more from our stay,

Excellent location, lovely property and very family friendly! Lovely little touches throughout! And great value for money.

The cottage was well equipped and very cosy. The Christmas tree and lights were a lovely touch.

Good for doggy stays as fields and river walk close by. Also easy access into Bristol city as direct bus from right outside the front door and no stopping until in Bristol. Owners are wonderful and very responsive and kind.

A little ‘tired’ and on a very busy road so you do hear traffic.

The cottage is quaint and has a lot of potential. The host was helpful when contacted with issues while we were there.

The booking was made for 6 people but the cottage is not equipped for 6. There are 4 beds and 1 very small sofa bed so 1 of us had to sleep on the sofa for 2 nights. The 'hot tub' only has space for a maximum of 3 people and even then, not to sit comfortably. When we arrived the bathroom had an enormous puddle of dirty water in the corner which had been left from the previous guest's shower. We also didn't have the right bedding or towels provided. There are also no bathrobes or slippers as stated on the listing. Some issues were corrected once we contacted the host but it was frustrating. The electrics are also faulty and everytime we turned on a bedroom light upstairs the whole floor tripped out. The garden is poorly maintained and there is a lot of mould and dampness in the property. One of the walls in the twin room had water running down the inside of it both mornings and soaked the bed. It was an okay stay for 2 nights but definitely oversold and sadly not worth what we paid for it.
