What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
This handsome Georgian country house is packed with personality, from the topiary teddy bear to the colorful and eclectic rooms and suites.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Tucked into the peaceful Limpley Stoke Valley overlooking the Avon countryside, the estate sits just fifteen minutes outside central Bath.
The rooms
Individually styled rooms pair bold artwork with rich textures, while select suites open onto private terraces with outdoor saunas and hot tubs.
The spa
Bring a swimsuit.
Treatment rooms host facials and massages, and the heated outdoor pool looks out across the Somerset countryside.
Saunas and vitality pools
Indoor and outdoor vitality pools sit beside wooden barrel saunas and a sheltered hot tub on the spa terrace.
Dogs stay too.
Olio Restaurant & Terrace
British-Mediterranean dishes draw on produce from the ten-acre no-dig garden, served under crystal chandeliers or inside lawn dining domes.
At the table
Valentine's Bar shakes cocktails and pours local spirits across colorful lounges that host afternoon tea.
How it began
Hoteliers Ian and Christa Taylor took over the Georgian country estate in 2018, transforming classic manor proportions with playful, art-filled flair.
