The photos and the first view of the house seemed promising. Robert was there to greet us as his partner was away. As well as the room, there was a separate sitting room which we were invited to use which was nice. The bed was comfortable and the room was spacious. I'm afraid this is where the compliments end. The... more

My husband and I stayed for two nights over the Easter weekend in the Jane Austen room. It was very spacious and quiet - so relaxing that we were at time tempted not to leave to get food! The breakfast was delicious especially the rhubarb which I would never think of as part of breakfast. And of course Robert and... more

We have just returned from an overnight stay at The Grove,having booked only the previous day via the website. We stayed in The Jane Austen room and were delighted with our choice. It was extremely comfortable and spotlessly clean. Robert and Dee were fantastic hosts and made us feel most welcome from the moment we arrived. The breakfast was delicious,... more

My husband and I stayed two nights here on a six day trip around the country. Those nights were the highlight of our trip as the other places didn't even come close to the standard set by The Grove. We arrived late due to a late concert in Bristol but Deirdre and Robert met us cheerfully and offered us a... more

We were 2 couples spent 2 wonderful days with Deedra and Robert, spacious rooms, very clean,beautiful outside gardens. Mornings with super breakfeast.I highly recommend this place. The only problem that u feel so good at their home, that maybe u miss seeing Bath because u dont feel like leaving. more

I have stayed at the Grove on several occasions; the Wolsey Lodge concept is great for lone travellers because the host makes a point of welcoming you, and Robert Strickland and his partner Dee are no exception. The house is a most attractive listed building, constructed of bath stone, in a very quiet area of Bath and yet within walking... more

The Grove is a very special place, where you can enjoy a quintessentially English experience (albeit with a strong Scottish dimension thrown in). It is situated within the city of Bath only a mile from the centre, yet in quiet rural surroundings. Our accommodation was superb, but what makes The Grove special is that you are welcomed and treated as... more

This is an architecturally beautiful house in very nice grounds but I am afraid it came no where near to justifying it's £110.00 per night price tag (you can pay £150.00!) Firstly both the Alistair Sawday and The Grove's own website lead you to believe there are two double rooms, and therefore I chose to make a reservation based on... more
