This converted 'Oxen shed' is situated at the end of a quiet lane on the family's working sheep farm in the picturesque village of Kelston. Although only ten minutes from the center of Bath and 20 minutes from Bristol it is set in beautiful countryside surrounded by rolling hills.

It is a cosy, detached, single story property with a whirlpool bath, electric wood effect stove and pretty wrought iron bed. You can relax on your own private veranda with spectacular views out over open countryside.

'The Old Crown Inn', a traditional West country pub, is just a ten minute walk down to the village. Here you can enjoy a wide range of reasonably priced food and a good selection of beverages including local real ales and cider.

There are many fantastic walks from the cottages. These include a walk up to 'Kelston Round Hill' from which you can take in panoramic views over Bath and Bristol. For the more adventurous the Cotswold Way passes through the farm allowing you to further explore this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

It is just a ten minute drive to Bath - a world heritage site and one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

    Our stay was nearly perfect. The only suggestion we would make is maybe replace the mattress or put a mattress topper on the bed. It’s quite firm.

    Hare Cottage provides excellant views of the country side to the west of the property. Hot air balloons can be seen drifting across the landscape as far Bristol and the lights on the Seven Bridge may be seen during the hours of darkness. The Round Hill behind the cottage provides a much higher viewpoint in all directions as you walk around the small wood at it's peak. The access road from Kelston is quite steep and serves as part of the local footpath network which radiates from the higher ground behind. This was our second holiday at Hare Cottage and it was equally enjoyable as our first holiday especially for the local wildlife, which seems to be attracted to the cottage.

    The cottage is very well equipped and maintained. We were lucky to have a few very hot days when we would have appreciated a little shade in which to sit outside, but who can tell with the British weather. We enjoyed walking from the cottage most days and also loved watching the antics of the sheep in the field opposite the cottage.

    Hare cottage was a sweet and peaceful place to stay to take in this part of the country. A nice place to relax during a very busy week of daytrips to Stonehenge and Weston super-mare and even Caerphilly Castle in Wales. Nicely located, close enough to enjoy the markets and attractions in Bath whilst enjoying the quiet countryside of the evening and waking up to incredible misty scenes across the fields and valleys. The cottage itself was excellent and faultless and the host is exteemely welcoming and friendly.

    The property is provided with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay and is ideally situated; far enough away from noisy roads yet handy for Bath, Bristol and other attractions. If hilly walking/running is your thing, you could do no better than stay here. Highly recommended.
