Cider Press Cottage

Lovely Cottage, close to Bath and very friendly host.

Great stay at Cider Press Cottage all four of us really enjoyed our stay, A lovely cake left for us which we really enjoyed, the cottage itself lovely and quirky and well furnished.

Shuttle bus into Bath and the local pub the Ring of Bells done some fantastic meals.

Beautiful, cosy cottage in a lovely village!

We had a great time staying at Cider Press Cottage. Excellent location for visiting the surrounding area and lovely, welcoming village pub which served delicious food was an added bonus!

A wonderful property, the cottage is in a peaceful and picturesque location.

The owners were especially welcoming and there was even a large fruit cake on the table when we arrived, which was much appreciated. The property was well furnished with nice personal touches e.g. fresh flowers in all the rooms. Thanks for making a comfortable and pleasant stay.

Highly recommended accommodation, very comfortable and well fitted.

A quiet location but near enough to Bath and other places of interest.

Cider Press Cottage was a lovely cottage lovely village the owner popped over he was very nice gave us information about the area and where to visit, food in local pub lovely.

Would definitely go back

We hebben het geweldig naar ons zin gehad!

Een warm welkom met zelfgebakken cake, heerlijk. We kregen leuke tips: Wells en de lokale pub om te eten. Prachtige wandelingen in de omgeving. Bath is een aanrader, evenals Stourhead, Cheddar Gorge en Bradford on Avon.

We loved our stay at the cottage, we had a wonderful 4 days exploring the local Area and the hosts were so friendly and accommodating, we will certainly be back in the future.

Lovely picturesque cottage, in a quaint village surrounded by lovely walks in the countryside and only a few miles from Bath.

Ideal for a peaceful few days .

We had such a lovely time at the cottage, everything was just right.

Easy access to Bath and Cheddar, Wells and Laycock Abbey are not too far in the car and well worth a visit. I use holiday cottages quite a lot and this was definately one of the best, we were not dissappointed.

All excellent.

Jolly good.

Lovely cottage in a great location, and in perfect condition with high quality furnishings.

Can't fault it!

Our second great stay at Cider Press Cottage.

The delicious Victoria Sponge on arrival was a real treat. We had a week of warm sunny weather and were able to enjoy the beautiful terrace with far reaching views every day. We also enjoyed our walk through the woods foraging wild garlic. Lucy and Simon are delightful and the best hosts one could wish for.

We had a wonderful stay.

We could not find any fault with the property. The owners were most helpful and lovely people!

Beautifull cottage lovely village Simon and Lucy were so lovely delicious cake thank you lovely walks and lovely pub in village we fed the donkey had just the best break felt so refreshed thankyou

We really enjoyed our stay at Cider Press cottage, which was charming and full of character.

The owners were most helpful with much local information , and happy to be called on if there were any issues, being in the main house themselves. Thanks to Lucy, we were welcomed by vases of daffodils and primroses, and a tasty Victotian sponge. The cottage is situated on the edge of Priston, a village with a church and pub.

Lovely well equipped cottage in a beautiful village, with picturesque surroundings and a great pub just up the road in walking distance.

Lovely stay perfect for local wedding venue.

Property clean and presentable. All facilities in property in excellent condition. Love the fluffy towels. Thank you for the lemon cake. Loved the wood burner much needed on a stormy Sunday afternoon. Quiet peaceful location. Thank you

Wonderful small cottage in a wonderful village , with wonderful hosts .

... oh and the pub is pretty wonderful too ! Comfortable , and in a great location both for Priston Mill for weddings , and to Bath . Will visit again.

Lovely cottage in a lovely location.

So convenient for the park and ride in to Bath. Very welcoming owners and villagers. We especially enjoyed the lemon drizzle cake and steak night at the Ring O Bellls in the village. We found the beds very comfy but the sofas unfortunately not. As urban dwellers we appreciated the silence and the peaceful countryside location but found driving round the narrow country lanes that access Priston rather stressful,

We had a lovely stay at Cider Press Cottage.

The village was beautiful with some lovely walks in the surrounding countryside. The cottage was in a very convenient area with Bath, Bristol and Longleat a short drive away. The cottage was comfortable and clean and the welcome lemon drizzle cake was yummy. A great cottage that we would highly recommend. My daughter wants to go back next year.

Lovely cottage and the owner was very welcoming and baked us a welcome cake!

. Quiet location and perfect for exploring Bath, cheddar & Glastonbury. Only one small comment, the sofa cushions are a bit thin but otherwise lovely place.

Location was good and the fresh cake a nice gesture.

But that's as far as the good gets. The sofas were worn out to the point where you could not sit on them. There was no extractor hood in the kitchen and utensils were not clean. The mattresses were also worn out and left us with back pain. Worst of all the downstairs area had lots of woodlice. Our kids were horrified. Heating was on a timer and completely off the first day (but the owner put it on after we asked). Do not recommend.

Lovely peaceful cottage in the countryside.

Very tasteful decoration and cosy. Just a few miles from Park & Ride to get into Bath

Beautiful cottage in a lovely village.

The front garden is a sun trap in the evening and would be good to have more seating or a small table. I would update the transport info as no buses from the village! But park and ride only a short drive away. Beautiful touch with the wild flowers and cake.

We had a lovely stay at Cider Press Cottage.

We had everything we needed for our stay and Lucy was very accommodating providing cot/highchair for our toddler. The cottage itself is lovely we really enjoyed the little garden for sitting out in the evenings. Easy to access both Bath and Bristol as day trips and would definitely recommend to those looking for a peaceful retreat.

Lovely cottage very clean and in a peaceful village with a good pub.

Locals were very friendly and helpful too.

We had a lovely stay at Lucy’s cottage for 2 weeks.

The cottage has everything you need and is very cozy. And the outside space is idyllic to relax in when the weather permits. Lucy was a really kind host and even baked us a delicious lemon drizzle cake on arrival! Highly recommend!

Very warm welcome from Lucy the owner - and the homemade cake was delicious.

Comfy and cosy cottage. Great area for cycling.

Lovely cottage in a pretty village.

Thanks to Lucy for the delicious cake which was such a lovely touch. Great local pub with fabulous food.

We had a great time in this cottage.

Clean, complete and well thought out. Everything we hoped for during our week in Priston. Lost to see and do in the area. Very kind and friendly owners.

The property is lovely.

The layout is perfect. Absolutely spotlessly clean. Plenty of parking right outside the front door. Comfortable beds. Kitchen well stocked with equipment and appliances. Property overall warm and cosy. Water pressure in shower could be better but other than that I would highly recommend a stay in this lovely cottage.

Lovely cottage!

Amazing host and beautiful village. We would love to come back!

A comfortable and clean cottage, great host who was very helpful.

Would,d definitely recommend and would,d stay again if visiting the area. Great cake as well. Thank-you

Fabulous place to stay.

Every catered for.

Beautiful cottage in an idyllic setting, everything wonderful.

A lovely cottage in a beautiful location - perfect for a relaxing holiday.

Well equipped and comfortable. A perfect base from which to explore the area.

Everything was perfect.

Lovely cottage in great location.

Lucy and Simon are very friendly.

We loved the cottage It was our third visit and we have booked another visit for October It is a lovely comfortable cottage and very well equipped We very much appreciated the home made jam and delicious lemon drizzle cake

The cottage was really lovely, very clean and well equipped, and very tastefully furnished.

It felt like a home from home. The beds were really comfortable and there were plenty of towels. The location in Priston was great - the cottage was very quiet, and in beautfiul countryside but close to Bath, so we drove ten minutes to the Park and Ride where there were frequent buses into Bath. Priston itself is a lovely small village. The host Lucy was really helpful and we really enjoyed the beautiful lemon drizzle cake awaiting us on arrival! We hope to return ad I highly recommend this cottage.

We had a fantastic stay and felt so welcome.

We loved the cottage and its peaceful location, plus the delicious cakes too!

Utterly delightful.

A definite revisit. Sincere thanks.

Lovely cottage, the owner was very friendly and helpful and responded very quickly to any queries.

Upon arrival we found a delicious cake - thank you! Very comfortable beds. The cottage is ideally placed for exploring the area, close to a park and ride into Bath, about an hour from Longleat and lots of places to visit. Would stay again!

It's a lovely cottage and a nice drizzle cake on arrival and owner saying hello.

I've only given 3* though as owner came in whilst we were out to shut a window and we also had to let her and an epc inspector in for about 15 minutes whilst there and with no warning. I value privacy greatly and this marred the overall good experience.

Well equipped comfortable cottage in an excellent village location We were welcomed with a home made pot of jam Comfortable beds and fresh towels and linen were all provided Central heating and hot water was excellent and a log burner available if desired I would recommend this cottage to anyone and will be likely to return No local shop but a pub where we had a nice meal Many thanks

A lovely cosy well equipped cottage, situated in a great location.

Lucy was a lovely host to I would have no issues in recommending Cider Press cottage.

Lovely cottage in a fabulous location.

The cake on arrival was amazing and the owners really welcoming. The resident donkey was a hit with the kids. Ten min car ride to Bath park n ride and a great base to explore Somerset from.

Fantastic cottage, comfortable and cosy.

We were made to feel welcome by the lovely owners who live in the attached building. We enjoyed the surrounding countryside and the local pub. We highly recommend staying here.

An excellent cottage with all facilities in a super location.

The hosts are very helpful and welcoming. I would definitely recommend it to friends.

The Cottage was perfect for us from the warm welcome to the comfortable beds.

Our host pointed out all the places of interest including the nearest supermarket and the local pub. The village was lovely and had some stunning walks (and Dylan the donkey). Cider Press Cottage is beautifully decorated and furnished and we quickly felt at home. Would definitely book again.

It was all REALLY lovely.

.... but if I were to be super critical, I’d say a mirror downstairs would reflect some light into the lounge and be of use as a final self check before you go out the front door. GENERAL FEEDBACK TO SYKES - Perhaps you would explain why one can’t get into the properties until 4pm because of thorough cleaning needed to be done by the proprietor (re: Covid), when guests still have to leave at 10am, now having to remove bedding and thoroughly clean (re: Covid). Prices have gone up, one gets less time at the property and the customer is doing the work! When I stay in an hotel I don’t have to take off my bedding when I leave!

An absolute gem!

Very comfortable, well appointed and exceptionally clean. So pleased to have met our hosts, who were welcoming, delightful and discrete. The property is also I. A beautiful location - quiet and rural with plenty of opportunities for lovely walks on the surrounding countryside, but also only about 5 minutes from the park and ride service into Bath. We didn’t manage to meet Dylan the donkey in the nearby field … so I guess we’ll have to visit again in the future!

Gorgeous place to stay complete with miniture donkey and flapjack on arrival!

Couldn't recommend more.

A peaceful and charming cottage.

The hosts are very kind and thoughtful. The village pub is not to be missed.

Had the most amazing time, so impressed with the cottage, and it was everything that we had wished for and more!

Had a lovely lunch in the local pub, and loved the village. Both Simon and Lucy were so helpful and the cake was delicious. Thank you both so much for making our New Year so special.

Comfortable and well designed cottage in a lovely peaceful village location.

Very comfortable beds. It was really cold weather but the cottage soon warmed up and having the woodburner made it extra cosy. The locals were really friendly and welcoming, as were the owners. There are plenty of good local walks and getting into Bath is very easy, we used the Park & Ride which was quick and efficient. We shall definitely be booking here again.

We had an excellent relaxing week at Cider Press Cottage.

A badly needed holiday for us and it was so peaceful. The owners added extra touches, such as flowers in each room, milk in the fridge and a wonderful home baked cake! Also lots of logs and kindling for the wood burner. There were some very interesting books - we wished we could have stayed longer and read more! The cottage was ideal for exploring the area, good walks and within easy reach of Bath, Wells, Frome and others. Plus the owners were very friendly and helpful. The pub in the village, within walking distance had excellent quality meals and were inexpensive. We would highly recommend this very comfortable cottage for your holidays.

A very lovely cottage.

Well equipped, cosy and comfortable. Helpful owners .

The apple cake that Lucy had provided for us on arrival was a thoughtful touch.

Simon was an excellent host, advising us about the village and places to visit. The cottage was very clean, tidy and well-equipped

A really lovely cottage in a quaint and quiet village , but will easy access to Bath and all it has to offer

The cottage was in a fantastic location.

The owners were friendly and made us feel so welcome. The welcoming cake was beautiful and the little touches such as the flowers made the cottage a perfect location.

The hosts were lovely and welcoming and the cottage had everything we needed for a long weekend.

It’s set in a beautiful village with stunning views and is only a quick Uber into Bath.

Lovely peaceful cottage, well appointed and in a prime location for Bath.

An amazing 18th century cottage.

The owners were very friendly and helpful. Complete peace and tranquillity. We had a relaxing break. Will go there again.

Lovely, cosy cottage in a peaceful village location and yet just a 10-15 minute drive from Bath.

We were pleasantly surprised to find a lemon drizzle cake waiting for us on our arrival (delicious!) and the cottage itself was very well presented and clean. The weather was rubbish for us (didn't stop us going out on long walks) but snuggling up in the evening with a lump of lemon drizzle and the wood burner going was a very pleasant way to dry off. Very friendly and considerate owners who, on introduction, offered some valuable advice about the area for us and our 2 kids. The Ring O' Bells pub is well worth a visit for a meal, friendly staff and good food. The cottage is roughly a 40 minute drive from Longleat which was a great day out for us and the kids. I would certainly recommend this cottage and we hope to visit again next year!

We had a really great stay at Cider Press Cottage.

Welcomed with a friendly smile and delicious lemon drizzle cake, we found the accommodation a wonderful and comfortable retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. We particularly enjoyed the wood burning stove and the grounds. My son loved playing in the stream and feeding the donkeys. Simon and his wife have a beautiful home! Feel free to publish this feedback. Below is a note to the owner. One note to the owner who may not be aware. There seems to be a slight woodlouse issue (could be the time of year?). During the night, there were hundreds on the wooden table outside and the external walls and door. Some made their way inside the house. Not a massive issue for us but they might freak some people out to think about the possibility of one crawling over them at night. We did find a couple on the bed!

The owners were very welcoming, and even left milk and a home baked cake for us on arrival.

Such a lovely cottage!

Priston is an ideal location to explore the beautiful countryside but close enough to enjoy the sights of Bath. Every little detail has been thought of in this cottage which is a comfy, quiet haven. Don’t miss the donkeys in the back field, and the owners are close by to offer helpful advice and tips when they’re needed. Can’t recommend it highly enough, and we’d love to come back and stay again

Very cosy, well looked after cottage in a lovely village.

Beautiful cottage in pretty setting on outskirts of village.

Cottage was well fitted out with everything we needed. Flowers and lemon cake were very nice and welcome touches. Could easily have stayed an extra day.

Stayed as a group of friends for a relaxing weekend.

Beautiful cottage, gorgeous surroundings and our host was welcoming and friendly. Such lovely surprise extras made us feel completely spoiled. Can not wait to book to stay again. Can not recommend highly enough.

We had a lovely comfortable stay at Cider Press Cottage.

Although cold, the wood burner helped keep us cosy. We didn’t want for anything and The owner ensured we were happy. Smaller than the photos suggest but very cosy.

We had a wonderful relaxing weekend in this beautiful cottage.

Lucy was the perfect hostess and even brought us in a home baked lemon drizzle cake. Would definitely recommend

The main thing we were concerned about was that we had no access to the heating controls.

When we arrived it was very cold and we couldn't turn the heating on. We contacted the owner with the numbers provided but couldn't get hold of her. We later found out (the next day) she was in USA and luckily her neighbour/house sitter was feeding her animals and was able to assist us into unlocking a cupboard which had the controls in. A few little things were: The toilet seat was loose and moved, it needed attention. The cottage slept 4 but only had 2 small tumblers? The larger bedroom had been made up for a double bed but had single duvets which is a little strange for sleeping in.

A lovely cottage in a lovely village - exactly what we were looking for.

Excellent property in a beautiful location.

Very peaceful for a nice relaxing break. Would definitely recommend.

A delightful, well equipped, very comfortable Cottage.

Situated in a very pretty Village 10 mins from the park & ride into Bath & not too far from many other places well worth visiting.

Really brilliant!

We stayed in Lucy's cottage as part of a girls weekend away. It was a brilliant location -very short commutes to Bath and Cheddar Gorge. The house was beautiful. It was comfortable l, clean and a real home away from home. Lucy was an attentive and welcoming host too Thankyou for a wonderful stay!

The owner Lucy pays exceptional attention to detail in all aspects of the cottage which was much appreciated.

Cider press cottage is a lovely place to spend a holiday when sight seeing in Somerset.

The decor and facilities are first class and the owner Lucy made sure that we had everything we needed to make our stay pleasant and comfortable. The village is a good place to start many walks from and there are loads of local books and maps in the cottage. The village pub does excellent food, and to stock up there is a Sainsburys approx. four miles away. We would recommend this cottage to anyone.

Cottage was in a great location and had everything we needed.

It really was a home away from home.

Such a cosy little place.

Lucy Barnes was a delight and made us a superb lemon drizzle cake! The Cider Press was well equipped, clean and tidy and the beds were extremely comfortable. It was a lovely cosy place to stay. It’s extremely close to Bath and the park and ride was so close. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this cottage.

Such a beautiful, cosy cottage.

Suited our needs perfectly and was in an ideal location to explore Bath and the local area. Loved having the wood burner going in the evenings! Lovely couple of days away to recharge :-)

Lovely cosy cottage, extremely well equipped and perfect for a relaxing weeks stay.

Ideally located for day trips to Bath, Wells and Bristol.

very clean and well appointed - perfect location

Attractive cottage, nice village, good position for Bath.

A comfortable, clean and cosy cottage.

Loved it. Cracking village too.

We had a great time here, it was lovely and quiet and yet close enough to the places we wanted to visit.

The locals were very friendly in the pub, all in all a lovely place to stay.

The property was gorgeous and in a beautiful setting.

Very Clean.

Everything we needed we found in the cottage. Very comfortable to and read - unusual!!!

The owners were both friendly and helpful.

The cottage was presented in a very good manner, set in beautiful rural location. We could not have asked for more.. In our opinion there is nothing to improve. It is idyllic.

Beautiful cottage, lovely village, lovely people!

BLISS!

Location of cottage good, easy for dog walking especially last thing at night and early morning!

Spacious, comfortable and warm.

well equipped, some more info about travelling in the area would be useful

It is a lovely cottage.

We love Bath so it was fab to stay so close yet still enjoy the tranquility of the countryside.

\ The cottage was beautiful and we especially loved being able to visit the horses and donkeys at the top of the field! \ \

It looked even better than on the website.

It's really a gem!

It was wonderful to walk through the door and feel as if I had arrived home.

A beautiful, peaceful cottage!

The cottage is absolutely beautiful, the village is lovely and has a great pub and Lucy is marvellous!

Wonderful welcome and well decorated

Cottage in lovely village, local pub excellent food, convenient for Park and Ride.

Feel at home from the first step inside.

This was by far the best place we stayed at during our trip.

Our hosts were delightful, considerate and welcoming. The property actually exceeded our expectations as did the village itself. Lucy greeted us sympathetically with freshly baked flapjacks (clearly her specialty) which was so very much appreciated after an unexpectedly long trip from London. We loved the donkeys braying, and the horses passing on their way into the village from the front door. We were drawn into Ring of Bells with their great food, beer, scrumpy and easy conversation. The people of the village are welcoming and patient even when explaining the intricacies of cricket which was a delight to watch behind the church (also worth a stop) on the pitch. We enjoyed many walks in the area, touring Bath, and seeing stone circles. It is an enchanting place.\ We pretty much loved everything, however it was the peace that descended onto the village which seemed to permeate through to our bones. \ The property is very comfortable and very well cared for. An absolutely outstanding property.\ Moira Schmidt, June 2016\

THE LOCATION WAS LOVELY AND QUIET, THE COTTAGE IMMACULATE AND WELL EQUIPED, THE FLAPJACK DELICIOUS.

It's a beautiful cosy cottage in a rural village surrounded by nature.

The host, Lucy, is super welcoming and even gave us some delicious freshly baked flapjacks. The cottage has all the amenities you'd need to have a comfortable stay, a true home from home. Oh, and the most comfy beds I've ever slept in!

Thank you for a lovely stay.

Beautiful cottage, clean with everything we needed.

Lovely welcome and helpful owner. Well situated to Bath.

We had a wonderful time in Priston!

It was the perfect space for a relaxing and cozy Christmas vacation. We were able to make a full Christmas dinner in the kitchen, rest by the wood fire, and go on long walks right from the front door. We also made many day trips out from this central location, including the Cotswolds, Bath, and the Jurassic Coast. The cottage is adorable and located in a quiet village that is only a short drive from the city. Lucy and Simon were very friendly and welcomed us with a delicious homemade cake. We couldn't have had a more perfect stay

Comfy beds, tranquil setting, fully equipped and lovely hosts.

Mr Muir, July 2017

Very nice holiday & welcome.

Mrs Thomas, April 2017.

Beautiful cottage, very clean, lots of little extras, lovely cake on arrival and friendly hosts

The cottage was perfect for our requirements and very well equipped.

it was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfortable. One of the nicest we have ever stayed in and we hope to return one day.

Good location, property has character.

We loved it!

My family gave me an A+ for finding and booking this cottage!\ It was quiet, cosy and had everything we needed. The owners were just lovely and let our kids help feed their donkeys. It was wonderful to return to this cottage as our little sanctuary after busy days sight-seeing. We used the Park and Ride to get into Bath, which was very easy and good value. Thankyou for a lovely place to stay and a delicious cake too!\ \
