Kate and Clive were lovely hosts - very welcoming to their beautiful property! The room was super, clean and had everything we needed. It was super to meet the other guests and have a chat over Clive's delicious cooked brekkie! Thanks for having us to stay!

Our hosts were very welcoming, helpful and interesting. They were both naturelovers and the garden was full of plants and shrubs and they had a menagerie of all sorts of birds running freely in their field.

Amazing few days at this lovely B&B. Such a friendly welcome which just continued throughout our stay. Felt like home from home. Clive makes a great cooked breakfast which we just couldn’t resist each morning. Thank you Kate and Clive for such a lovely stay we will be back

Quiet Paradise by Bath!
What a wonderful and peaceful place! First and foremost, the hosts, Kate and Clive, are just fabulous - the welcome was warm, the support/directions were awesome, and the breakfast... I am still in withdrawal after my delicious English breakfasts!!! Now, just imagine paradise - surrounded by trees - and a large prairie with lots of birds - chickens, ducks, and some sort of Emu (never seen these before) and they just meander - that is, after some morning crowing which is, of course, de rigueur! However, the nights are extremely quiet. Also, easy transportation to Bath by bus (2 pounds each way), with the stop within just a few minutes from the Cottage. Lovely place, fabulous stay! The bed was a bit soft, but OK for a few nights.

Hello Doug and JulieMy goodness what kind words, thank you so much. We are both delighted that you had such a nice relaxing time here. We both very much enjoyed your company and the chats in and around the field and the garden. It's always so nice when people love the field and the trees we have planted plus the crazy animals too!I hope the rest of your holiday goes smoothly and that this rather "up and down" British weather does not put the dampners on it too much. If we ever head your way, we will let you know that's for sure, so thank you for your kind invitation.Enjoy the rest of your holiday.With very best wishes,Kate and Clive

A gem of a find!
Meadowbrook Cottage is a gem of a find and one I most definitely will be using again! The hosts (Kate and Clive) are so welcoming and can't do enough for their guests. I was fortunate to stay in the log cabin which was wonderous! The cabin was clean and comfortable with a lovely outside area where I could enjoy watching the animals and the river. There was a starter pack of basic foods that was left for me to enjoy which included fresh eggs from their hens. This was a very pleasant surprise and a lovely touch. I can't say enough of how much I enjoyed my time staying at Meadowbrook Cottage, it is my find of the year. I will see you very soon :)

We loved every minute of our stay and want to go back! Kate and Clive are fantastic hosts and we loved their place. The garden and field where they keep chickens, ducks, geese, rheas, and a swan was so great and fun to watch. Clive is a great cook as well. This bed and breakfast was just the relaxing stay we needed on our busy vacation through the UK and Ireland. A bus stop nearby frequently has a bus going into Bath so getting around was simple and inexpensive. Can’t recommend this place enough!!

Anyway, we both wanted to say how utterly lovely it was to meet you both and thank you so much for your kind comments regarding your stay with us. I am so glad that you enjoyed the "tour" round the field, it was a shame that I wasn't able to do it as I do enjoy introducing our guests to some of the crazy birds that we have living here with us. Sincerely hope the rest of your travel and your stays are going well. Sounds to me like you both might need a rest when you get back home!A real pleasure to meet you both.With all good wishes to you both,Kate and Clive

Fabulous little gem. Situated just off the main road but incredibly quiet. Hosts (Kate & Clive) could not have been more welcoming - as was Midge (the dog). Breakfasts were delicious (pick up some freshly laid eggs when you leave by the way). A really well situated location for so many places. We were advised Bath is not the easiest place to access via car - but literally three minutes walk to the main road - great bus service to Bath. Plenty of places to eat locally - but best to book just to be on the safe side. Delighted we found it - will definitely return.

Fabulous little gem of a B & B
Myself and my daughter had a delightful 4 night stay as we were attending the Badminton horse trials. The cottage is located in the gorgeous little village of Box in beautiful, peaceful surroundings about 30 minutes from Badminton. The hosts were friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. It was lovely to come back to them and have a chat every day without them being intrusive. We had a double room as the king was not available and we had enough space to put a blow up bed for my daughter. The room was clean and comfortable and the en suite was also clean with a good shower. The breakfast was beautifully cooked, served hot and there was plenty there! All in all a lovely experience and we will definitely book again

Perfect B&B
Clive & Kate are the perfect hosts. Nothing is too much trouble. The breakfasts are mountainous, rooms are comfortable and clean and the surrounding countryside is awesome. Can’t recommend this B&B enough. ar enough out of Bath to be quiet but near enough to make access to the city a short bus or car journey away.

Delightful country escape
Clive & Katherine gave us a warm welcome to their home. We were shown to our room, which was very comfortable and met all of our needs, and then Clive told us about the walk we could take through to the village and the pubs in the area that would be great for a pint and evening meal. We took him up on both suggestions and had a great evening. On our return, Clive introduced us to their animals and showed us his new project (Log Cabin). We were treated just like family !! Breakfast was also like a family get together even with the other guest, and we were all treated to a hearty meal that lasted us the day. Both Clive & Katherine were a delight to meet and their home a lovely quiet escape from the world. We would highly recommend their BnB.
