“World's most uncomfortable bed”

2/2 found this review helpful

After reading all about Cranleigh, I was very much looking forward to my stay but I was greatly disappointed when I arrived.

On entering my room, which was sold on a triple basis, I found that the third "bed" we had to pay extra for was, in actual fact, a camp bed and not a single bed as advised.
The camp bed was too small for me (and I'm only petite), squeaked horrendously at every movement, the legs collapsed when I moved and springs stuck out all over the place.
It was so uncomfortable I failed to get a decent rest.

When I expressed my discomfort and recommended that the bed should not be used again, because it was so uncomfortable, the owner seemed unable to deal with a complaint. I was offered an apology but that was it.

I can't believe paying extra for such a bed is acceptable and it was not at all suitable for an adult, despite being told it would be.

On a more positive note, breakfast was enjoyable.

Enjoyed our stay at Cranleigh. Took a nice bath in the clawfoot tub, enjoyed a dvd with some tea and cookies in our room. Room was clean, comfortable, quiet and modern. Breakfast was very nice as well.

“Comfortable stay at The Cranleigh”

1/1 found this review helpful

Booked two rooms at The Cranleigh at the end of December and was more than delighted with the outcome. Lovely old house in quiet neighbourhood, full of character and beautiful furnishing/decor. Plenty of space and facilities - didn't use the mini-bar but was very impressed with how reasonable the price list was.
Excellent breakfast with a wide choice and good, quick service. Very welcoming and friendly hosts who made you feel at home immediately. Lovely little touches such as the emergency basket in the room with toothbruch and paste, razor, paracetomol, sewing kit, etc., etc.
Would definitely recommend Cranleigh to anyone thinking of visiting Bath and didn't mind being a bit out of the centre. Prices in the city for accommodation vary greatly and at £80 for a large double we were more than happy.

This property is absolutely gorgeous and I would recommend it to anybody. The quality of furnishings in our room was superb, the room very spacious and the bath and shower a luxury. Everything was taken care of by the owners who obviously take personal pride in the residence.

While it is not cheap, it is well worth the stay.

To top it off, breakast was beautiful. Fantastic, I wish we had stayed more than a nights.
