Principality View: City Centre & Free Parking
Lucky to get such a great place in such a convenient location. Communication was perfect, everything was provided proactively and with clarity

STUNNING city-centre 3 bed. River views + Parking
The flat was everything my group needed. We stayed 2 nights and Charlotte very kindly allowed us to check in 4 hours earlier than the listing states. The flat is on the top floor of a complex, right in the centre of bristol. It had everything as advertised. Mentioned in the listing, was that the balcony was under construction and unusable. When we arrived this was still the case, however there is another balcony connected to the kitchen which helped us avoid disappointment for a morning coffee in the fresh air. It felt very safe, being in a complex, and was easily accessible 24/7. Charlotte mentions there being a chance of noise late at night, because of the proximity to bars, but it didn't bother us at all being 4 floors up. She was polite, friendly, and reachable by phone throughout our entire stay, answering my questions quickly. The flat is spacious but still cozy, with more than enough space for a party of 8 people. We were all very happy with our stay and we would stay again.

Peaceful family flat near Longleat, central Frome
We had a perfect stay at Madeline’s flat when we visited to go to Longleat for the weekend. Madeline was a helpful and responsive host and we were able to get into the flat easily. It’s a lovely place - clean, comfortable and perfectly kitted out for our stay. The children especially loved the bunk beds and the special touches in their bedroom. We didn’t get much time to spend on the terraces (private and communal) but they are both very inviting. The block is very quiet and within walking distance to the charming town centre. Would definitely stay here again!

Luxe Apt with River View - Next to Harbour & Cafes
We had a wonderful time in Nic and Emily’s place, it is perfect for a couple to stay for few days traveling in Bristol, perfect location, easy access to city centre, the flat is well decorated, modern, cozy and comfortable, with a nice view of the river, it is silent and peaceful all night, everything in the flat is just great especially the shower, highly recommend!

Stylish apartment with bay views.
What I can find in the room is a beautiful bay view from the room, walkable to local shops and restaurants, plenty of parking spaces, good kitchen enough for simple cooking. This room is good for couple to stay.

Beautiful flat w/ balcony, pool table & 55" TV
Perfect spot for me travelling solo for a quick stay. Very easy to find, everything I needed, close enough to centre of town to meet friends, Rhys was great and very responsive.

Comfy Cardiff Bay Flat With Water Views & WiFi
Apartment was exactly as it was shown and described. Fantastic view and position perfect for us. Walk into the city along the river was pleasant and easy, likewise the bridge over to the lovely restaurants etc in the Bay. We will definitely book this apartment again when visiting Cardiff. Thank you Steven & Seki

Sea Views & Sunsets
My wife Jan and I stayed at Mark and Helen's Apartment for a few days and found it very spacious and clean with separate living/kitchen/dining, bedroom and large shower /bathroom areas. All the necessary kitchen utensils were included as were toiletries and towels/flannels. Mark was available at all times should we need any help. We would definitely stay at this Apartment again.

2 Bedroom Family Home in Chepstow with Parking
Jonathan's place was fantastic. Comfortable and relaxing in every respect. Located in a very nice, new neighborhood it was quiet and peaceful after the previous two days visiting London. Very spacious compared to other options. Was a wonderful base home for a couple days of exploring the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean. Finding the home is a bit tricky. Just follow Jonathan's instructions (which are quite thorough). His communication throughout the stay was great. Would highly recommended it to anybody visiting the Chepstow/South Wales area!

Symonds Yat mews cottage
Debbie's cottage was the perfect location for a short break with the dog. lots of lovely walks direct from the cottage and plenty of friendly pubs in the area. would highly recommend for anyone wanting to visit Symonds Yat

Tranquil, stream side, cosy retreat
A magical cottage! We had a great long weekend here - the house uas beautiful surroundings and very comfortable rooms. We also had a fantastic roast at a walking distance pub in the village. Definitely recommend!

Caithness Holiday Home
Beautiful house perfect for family holidays. Loved lazy days out with kids on the kayaks & rowing boat! Would definitely recommend. Alex was a great host & very helpful. Will definitely be back again one day…

Fisherman’s Lodge at Crane Lodge
We had a lovely stay at Fisherman’s Lodge, it was a perfect location for us to visit the universities. It was easy to find from Sue’s instructions and check-in via a key safe was straight forward. The property was modern, clean, bright and airy, well equipped and very comfortable. The shower was spacious and had plenty of hot water. The kitchen had everything I needed to cater for my hungry family and included cooking essentials, oil, salt, pepper, some sauces, tea, coffee etc, which was most useful. Set in a tranquil location surrounded by nature we enjoyed a walk after our evening meal and opened the blinds in the morning to find a roe deer munching her leafy breakfast. The lodge is situated close to the quirky Somerdale Pavillion parkrun for those who might be interested and we made use of the park and ride to explore Bath. I would highly recommend a stay here and we will definitely book again should our travels bring us down this way again.

*Luxury Coastal Retreat* Family friendly sleeps 10
Great place plenty of space inside. Kitchen was done lovely bathrooms nice. Location great for the front near beach and close to restaurants at hill street. Comfortable beds quiet in the evenings. Parking was a problem very difficult to park near the house would be better with permits as so close to front. Otherwise a fantastic stay in good location.

Dry Dock Cottage
The photos do not do the Drydock Cottage justice - it is even more beautiful than it looks in the photos and also a lot more spacious. The attention to detail and every element of the design that has gone into the conversion of this building is second to none. The location is also absolutely perfect - so peaceful, tucked away in gorgeous grounds with a view straight out onto the canal and across over the valley to the mountains beyond. I could have sat and watched the world go by, including the families of ducks, all day. The home made goodies were very welcoming and I loved every minute of my stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place for people looking to escape to somewhere unique and peaceful.

Mill House Snug, Wylye, Warminster, Wiltshire
We were absolutely delighted with our stay in the Nook. Such a beautiful setting and cosy, comfortable accommodation, with everything we could possibly need. The bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed a relaxing soak in the bath, followed by a hot drink in front of the log fire. I note the quality of the decor and crockery etc. we also very much enjoyed a walk around the garden. Such an idyllic location. Special thanks to Jennifer for offering such a wonderful experience.

Hansen House 2 Cardiff Apartment /Free Parking
We had a fantastic stay at this lovely apartment in Cardiff! The place was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The location couldn’t have been better as you’re in walking distance to Cardiff bay and Cardiff centre! Tony was absolutely wonderful—friendly, incredibly responsive, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. It made a real difference knowing we could reach out with any questions and get a prompt, kind response. All in all, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Holiday Apartment at Sand Bay
Mark the host very helpful and Sue friendly and full of local info. Got to say after using AB&B for a few years this is one of the most attractive and comfortable we have stayed at. We spent a few days cycling and relaxing, local bus service conveniently available adjacent to the apartment. Local pubs a bit of a walk but food and drinks available at both. Look forward to staying again.

Belgravia Mansions - Peaceful Georgian 3BR Seaview
This was the perfect place for our family to come back to each evening to relax. It was clean, cozy, and Lucy had all the accommodations we could’ve asked for. She was very responsive to any questions we had during our stay, and even had a helpful guide in the home. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in the area!

Crescent Green
Lisa was very responsive to my messages and gave me a heads up of an event in the area that could of made getting to the flat and parking difficult. The flat was spotless, fully furnished and was as shown and described in the AirBnB write up. The centre of Bath is a few minutes easy walk away. Although there is no parking directly outside the flat there is a car park literally a couple of minutes easy walk away. I would recommend this flat to anyone wanting to stay in Bath, close to the centre and Lisa was a fab host.

Gorgeous Georgian Apartment with Free Parking
What a treat to stay in such a beautiful period apartment in a quiet Cresent surrounded by trees.Tastefully restored and very comfortable.This accommodation enhanced our trip to Bath. Great location to walk to all central sites,shops and restaurants.

Riverfront apartment Newport
Lovely place, nice view of the river, private parking was super helpful as was Shona the host. Always got back to my many questions promptly!

Creatives Apartment on the Harbourside
The flat is beautifully designed – stylish, modern, and spotless. It had a warm, welcoming feel and was equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Great location in the city centre with easy access to shops, cafes, and public transport, yet tucked away in a quiet, peaceful street. It was the perfect base to explore Bristol. Kelly was fantastic – friendly, responsive, and thoughtful. She made check-in smooth and gave great local recommendations.

Harbour side central location
A very cozy, clean, and well-lit modern apartment with large windows offering beautiful views of the river and the inner garden. Everything—from the shower and kitchen to the washing machine—worked perfectly and well equipped. It is in a prime location yet private and quiet. Stuart is a thoughtful and responsive host who communicates promptly. I would definitely stay here again.
