Tythe Barn is a fantastic property in a secluded rural environment. It is immaculately clean and has all the facilities you could expect in a property of this nature including all the required kitchen equipment and gadgets.
Bedrooms are an excellent size and the bathrooms are modern with excellent showers. The garden is secluded and has a large hot tub that can comfortably accommodate more than 4 adults. The property in located in a working farm. The grounds, gardens, roads, etc are immaculate. There was a grounds keeper on site all the time during our week and he is keeping the whole site to

The cottage we stayed in was immaculate and so beautiful. The farm itself was also so lovely and nice to walk around. The extra touches in the cottage were very much appreciated, and being able to pick up fresh eggs for breakfast each morning was a real treat. The cottage was also very close to Bath by taxi.

What a wonderful place to stay. We stayed in The Dovecote, such a spacious and high spec property for two. We loved picking fresh eggs each morning from the chickens, long walks and hot tub in the evening. Highly recommend this place. We also had a huge welcome package filled with lots of goodies!

Our stay was incredible. The location is fantastic; we walked the farm upon arrival and made our way along the river to a couple of pubs. Our evenings were well-spent in the hot tub after long days walking Bath and Saltford. There was a welcome basket with everything to get us started and it was spot on! The bedrooms were great, although there is a low ceiling upstairs but nothing to worry about. We will definitely be going back!
