If you leave the motorway and proceed towards Bath, you will easily find Toghill House Farm. Built in the 17th century as a retreat for monks, it has great views over the city of Bristol yet is only a few miles from the center of Bath. This is a bona fide working farm where guests are free to participate in everyday farming activities if they so wish. All rooms are en suite. Pets and children are welcome by arrangement and special breaks are available on request. Because it is outside the city, there is plenty of car parking.
Imposing and very Victorian, this is a hotel that has immense atmosphere and is a must for those with a love of great music as one of the present owners is a musician with the London Symphony Orchestra and no doubt knows what an international traveler expects in the way of accommodation. There are views of the Royal Crescent from the upstairs windows and, although not far from the city center, mature gardens ensure that the sound of city traffic is almost non existent. All rooms have en-suite facilities and two rooms are suitable for family occupation. For that special away break a four-poster bed is available. Dorian House is open all year and prices for special breaks can be quoted for on request.
