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.

Waterside Studio flat - Sleeps 2 - Central&Parking
This was our second stay at Susie's property and both times it has been exceptional. The location is perfect, quiet but close to everything. Free parking is a huge plus too. We had a fabulous break and would love to visit again some time.

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!

Spacious 3 Bedroom Queen Square Apartment
Dave’s place is perfectly situated in a great area of Bristol only a short distance from some excellent pubs and restaurants and things to do The property is really nice, spacious and with all that we needed. Parking locally was pretty easy as well.

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!

Velvet Nest 5 min walk from train station
Very well set up flat overlooking the Grand Union canal with a pub opposite. The place was very comfortable and a 10 minute walk from the centre.

Elegant flat in Oxford Centre with Parking and AC
The location was great, close to Christ Church and the Main Street. It was peaceful and adequate. Thank you Mariano.

Splendid Industrial Style Pad, Fast WiFi, Family
We were undergoing IVF treatment and needed to stay in Birmingham for a week. We were looking for last minute accommodation as the previous place we had booked was inhabitable and we needed somewhere clean with excellent hygiene to be able to administer my medication safely. Claire’s accommodation exceeded expectations! It was modern, stylish and squeaky clean! It truly felt like a home away from home for the week and myself and my partner both agreed that it made our IVF journey more relaxed and enjoyable! The hosts were quick at responding to any queries we had and everything was easily accessible. We were truly blown away! Would 100% recommend to anyone staying in the area, we will definitely be using again! Thank you so much x

Large Country Cottage + Log Fire, Fire Pit Nr Bath
We loved our stay here. The place was cozy and had everything we needed. Location was perfect - very convenient for exploring Bath. Garden was a bonus - Kids enjoyed watching the chickens. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting this area!

Waddle-On-Inn. A Lakeside Turret with Hot Tub
Stayed for 3 nights for a get together with old friends. Weather was lovely and so we sat straight by the lake with a beer and spit of fishing. The views are fantastic and the surroundings are beautiful. Inside the place was spotless with lots of Room even with 5 of us inside. All the amenities we required were on hand. Good WiFi meant we were all able to communicate without any issues. The hot tub was the icing on the cake. Pure bliss! Walked over to the old boat house for a meal and drinks and then also walked to the Eliot arms for another great meal out. Didn’t want it to end. Would highly recommend this to either a family or group of friends. Awesome!

The Boathouse Stone Cottage
Absolutely loved our stay here. Perfect location, easy to go out and come back if needed. Comfy beds. Milk provided Private court yard but we also sat out by the river to people watch. The free river cruise you get with here was a nice touch. My husband thinks best place we've stayed. Lovely homely feel, we didn't want to leave. Will definitely be back. Only one thing after long drive there, there were no tea bags only a herbal one (I do normally try and remember some) but after a short walk to town to get some soon had cuppa in hand! Very handy for shops restaurants and walks along the river. Perfect few days. Thanks

Pennyroyal Lodge - HM31 - Lakeside Spa Property
Calm place and well maintained, we enjoyed the stay.

Cotswolds Getaway 'Rainbow Lodge' Lake views
What a wonderful stay! Great Lake House and beautiful sceneries. Kids will love this place as there’s tons of goose/ducks around and lots of space to walk around. Tricia has been so kind and welcoming, even dropped in to say hi and sent us some coffee & wine. What a graceful host, thank you once again 💕

The Lakehouse on The Landings; Cotswold Water Park
Fantastic property in a beautiful location. Host perfect responded promptly to any communication. Went above and beyond. Would highly recommend this property.

Beautiful 4 bedroom lake view home, sleeps 8-10
A really lovely stay in South Cerney - the place was perfect, clean and comfy, with everything we needed/wanted including a BBQ and games, and in a beautiful setting and with lots to do on the doorstep. Highly recommend.

Cotswold Water Park Lodge
We had a wonderful stay. The lodge is in a really quiet location overlooking the lake. Watching the goslings whilst having breakfast was so lovely. The lodge is as described and everything was clean and welcoming. Would stay again. Frannie is a great host, with excellent communication.
Waterfront condo accommodation

Central waterside
We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb in Oxford. The location was perfect—just a short walk to Westgate, the train station, and several great cafes. The apartment itself was clean, stylish, and thoughtfully updated, with a pleasing aesthetic that made it feel like a true retreat. One of the highlights was the river flowing right by the property—it added such a calm, soothing touch to our stay. Highly recommend!

Reed Warbler HM111 Penthouse Lake Retreat & Spa
I had a birthday weekender with friends and the apartment is really lovely and suited us perfectly. Not just clean, but comfortable too with everything you need. The host is great and helpful. It all made the stay so much more enjoyable. 100% would 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.

'Heron's Rest' canal side apartment with parking
Very nice flat, exactly as described. Backyard is on the Worcester-Birmingham canal, which was the attraction for me. There is a table and chairs for sitting out and watching canal boats and waterfowl pass by. The train is adjacent to the canal and trains pass by several times an hour during the day with some at night too. I actually enjoy the train traffic, but with the doors/windows closed there is no train noise. Kitchen is adequately supplied for just about any cooking. Bathroom is typically small, but the shower was great with steady flow of hot water. There is plenty of parking, numerous grocery stores and restaurants are within a short walk. I thoroughly enjoyed my 12-day stay.

Lovely Oxford apartment with free parking
We had a short stay of only two nights and didn’t really get around to using the many amenities provided, but never felt we lacked for anything that we did need. House and bed were comfortable, bathroom shower fixtures were easy to work. Good stay.

Penthouse Marina Apartment
This location is exceptional ! we thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and returning to such a tranquil setting after our wedding was the perfect conclusion to a wonderful day. 🤍🫶

A gem nestled in the heart of Oxford with parking!
Evie's place was the perfect location - right in the heart of Oxford but very quiet on a private street. The apartment was perfect for our group of four women. Highly recommend!

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.
