Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This quirky Georgian apartment is an ideal base for a stay in the heart of the city. Although small, it conceals some unique features, including a small courtyard garden for evening drinks and vaulted ceilings, which point to the home's original use as a coal cellar. Those ceilings make the connected bedrooms extra cosy, though the one bathroom might not be enough for larger groups. However, you're just around the corner from the Royal Crescent and a short walk away from the Roman Baths, so you're in an ideal location for sightseeing, and the large kitchen makes cooking meals easy.
