The village's friendly atmosphere and local pub add to the charm, with easy access to Bath and surrounding areas for sightseeing.
Guests frequently commend the cottage for its spotless presentation and consider it one of the cleanest stays. One review mentioned unclean utensils, but this seems an isolated incident against the backdrop of overall excellent feedback.
The location is highly appreciated for its beauty and convenience for dog walking, sightseeing, and proximity to Bath. The rural village setting is peaceful, with one review noting the lack of bus service but good access to park and ride.
The majority of guests find the beds very comfortable and the cottage cosy. However, a few guests found the sofas less comfortable, which slightly impacts the overall comfort score.
The cottage is praised for being well-equipped and warm, with a special mention of the kitchen's adequacy for a Christmas dinner. One review cited issues with worn-out sofas and woodlice, suggesting some areas could benefit from attention.

About this property
Perched on the outskirts of the historic city of Bath in Somerset, is this fantastic two-bedroom cottage, Cider Press Cottage. Thoughtfully furnished and decorated, Cider Press Cottage makes for a chic and roomy country getaway for couples or a family of four. This lovely tiny cottage is every bit the rural hideaway; it was built in the 18th-century and is located on the grounds of the owners' gorgeous mansion. Guests have access to over 18 acres of park like grounds to roam and explore. The cottage is private but still close to the countryside; a stroll down the path takes you to the village and the Ring O'Bells, the local tavern.
The interior's bright colours and stylish furnishings give it a contemporary feel, yet the many original period details keep the quaint atmosphere intact. Its convenient location within easy reach of downtown Bath or a pleasant stroll from the doorstep into the surrounding countryside, makes this home stand out among the others. In the months of July, August, and September, we only accept Friday arrivals for 7-night stays. (For any other check-in/stay dates/duration combinations, please enquire). Escape to Somerset with a stay at Cider Press Cottage.

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,
