In our visit to Bath we had planned to spend little time in the room so that we could maximize our time exploring the city and spending plenty of time at the thermite baths the city is so famous for. Given this it was a wonderful surprise to find such a reasonably priced bed and breakfast staffed by a warm,... More

My partner and I stayed for 3 nights during a city break in Bath. The house is tastefully decorated with many unique paintings and ornaments. We enjoyed the larger than average bedroom with four poster bed which we were upgraded to at no extra charge. The room had open views towards the city centre. Off road parking is a bit... More

I stayed at Beckford House on a regular weekly business trip to Bath, whilst working at the University. Due to numerous problems, I should have moved out to another B&B earlier, but as I was working long hours, didn't have the time to search the market. Aside from the fact the owner's hospitality and customer service leaves a lot to... More

We enjoyed our few days based in this lovely house and on our last day enjoyed making a snowman in the garden. Thanks to the host who fitted us in when they were full; he gave us the attic room at a favourable rate -- but we didn't recognise it from the other review...it was fine for us. The bed... More

We were anticipating a great time in Bath and were almost traumatised by our night in the attic - the carpet looked as if it had been taken off the tip and the room was full of slaters. The hosts were very charming as were the other guests. This seems to be a good place to stay from other reviews,... More

A lovely B and B. The house is beautiful and the room I stayed in was nicely done out and with a view. There wasn't en suite but a shower was just down the landing and this fitted in with the character of the house which is very 'Bath'. In fact I was pleasantly surprised by the whole experience as...

Charming Victorian house, superbly decorated with interesting pictures, memorabilia etc. Superb full English breakfast. Comfortable beds, lovely bathroom and very welcoming (& amenable) owner. We arrived late and Anthony could not have been more helpful. Highly recommended

I found Beckford House by chance and it turned out to be one of the best b & bs I have stayed in. Anthony, the owner, is very welcoming and friendly and my room (with 4 poster bed) was elegant and comfortable with a truly wonderful view of Bath. Breakfast was excellent and it was great to see local suppliers... More

Well-equipped rooms in a lovely, spacious old house that is tastefully furnished throughout. The owner, Anthony, is cultured, knowledgeable about Bath, and very helpful.

We stayed for 3 nights in October and had a lovely stay. This is a beautiful old house with large rooms and an adapted bathroom. The owner and his wife were very kind and friendly. He even gave me a stamp and helped me with a letter that I had to send. Breakfast was great. Coffee tasted like real coffee... More
