Staying at The Old Court is a one-of-a-kind experience in an unique, historic building. Nancy and John, the owners, have made a lot of updates and renovations, so that the interior is a mixture of old and new, of practical and fanciful. Despite its large size and unusual rooms, such as the original courtroom (now a dining room) and jail... More

Met by Nancy at the front door and shown to our room (Judges Master Suite) where a cup of tea was made for us. Nancy was ever so friendly and there's a real sense of history about the place. We were impressed with our room which was a mix of old and new - old being the amazing character features... More

Staying at the Old Court was a really different experience which we thoroughly enjoyed. The owner, Nancy, was really friendly and made us feel very welcome throughout our stay. We stayed in the Queen Anne Bolyn jail cell which was nicely decorated and had a large, comfortable bed. It was really different staying in a jail cell! Breakfast was lovely... More

I stayed at the Old Court for business and first of all drove past it twice. However, the bed was really comfortable and despite being in a jail cell it was really quiet and I slept well from 9 until 6. Nancy was really kind and showed me around the building and made the best scrambled eggs ever. More

We booked a night in the Judge's Master Suite as an anniversary treat; a characterful, well-featured and spacious suite in a property packed with historical charm. The warm welcome from the proprietors Nancy and John started even before our arrival, with a helpful email with recommendations for dinner venues and our stay itself. We were very well looked after during... More

Was given a unique places to stay voucher as a gift (therefore cannot comment on value) Spending the night in a jail cell was certainly that. Great fun room. Comfortable bed. Nancy went out of her way to help us enjoy our stay More

We stayed in the Old Court on a very short trip to Bath. It was a little further outside of Bath than we expected but this was a great accident as the location is beautful, unspoilt countryside - perfect for an evening walk before dinner. The en-suite room we had was very nicely decorated, unfortunately our room faced what was... More

We were Australians travelling in the UK and were looking for alternative accomodation to the usual motel. We booked pubs, farms etc across England, and saw the Old Court, and immediatly booked it. It exceeded all our expectations, we stayed in the jail cells, which were suprisingly warm and cosy ( im sure that is a change from the original!!)... More

We had a very comfortable break at The Old Court over the Easter weekend. Nancy gave us a warm welcome and took time to chat despite the fact that she was very busy as all the rooms were taken. She is clearly very proud of The Old Court and it is certainly unique. We booked the Magistrate's Chamber which was... More
