Catch up with the girls

Absolutely beautifully appointed property, gorgeous decor and the comfiest beds in the south! The gardens were a stunning backdrop for a catch up over dinner and wine with old friends. The sitting room was especially cosy with a comfy sofa and open fire. Easy to find but hard to leave, I'm sure we'll be back! Thank you Amanda, we loved your property!

Chic and relaxing stay in the countryside!

We really enjoyed our stay at Granby cottage. The grounds were beautiful and it was lovely exploring the gardens. Location was very convenient and hosts super nice. The cottage did not have a washer and dry so my only recommendation would be to plan clothing accordingly.

80th birthday celebration

Our stay at the cottage was perfect for celebrating an 80th birthday - the cottage was spacious enough to accomodate some extra guests for a night or two, and also perfect when it was just the two of us. A wonderful quiet location just outside Bradford on Avon, and lots to do within easy reach.

Thoroughly loved it.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the cottage to the point we wished we could have stayed longer. Enjoyed the outdoors environment as well as the peace and quite provided by the area. The cottage was spacious for our family of five and enjoyed all the comforts of home. We will definitely consider the cottage again on our next trip to the UK.

All around great!

From top to bottom, just all around a super place to stay. Well-managed and up-to-date, Amanda was a wonderful host -- accessible and friendly, welcoming and gracious. Very spacious cottage (the galley kitchen gets a little tight, but manageable), very comfortable. The location is exceptional, quiet and somewhat removed, yet easy access to Bradford-0n-Avon and especially Bath. Easily one of the best places we've stayed!!

An amazing property for a special stay.

We had a lovely time staying at Granby Cottage for my Mum’s 70th birthday. We surprised her with an overnight stay after a birthday meal nearby and she was very wowed! The property was perfect for a family stay, lots of space and a really cosy front room, which was great for eating together, games and relaxing. The kitchen was well equipped too and they left some handy essentials for us which was much appreciated. The only thing we found was the main bedroom was quite cold, we put the heating up for the duration but that far part of the house seemed to stay pretty cool and there was a bit of a bite to the air when we went to bed. Luckily the bed was very comfy and cosy. We also had a little bit of a delay getting the instructions to check in but once we did it was straight forward. Amanda was generally good at trying to accommodate our needs.

Great property in lovely location

Had a wonderful short break here. Very dog friendly, (if chickens/ducks aren’t a issue) and very comfortable accommodation. Small but functional kitchen. Lovely sitting/dining room, and beds were really comfy - duvets to die for! Hosts were very helpful and friendly. Dogs and humans had a great stay.

About the host

Hosted by Amanda Bishop

I am married to James and we moved to Wiltshire from Berkshire to Granby House as this is the house of our dreams.

Granby Cottage is situated within our grounds and we enjoy sharing our space and welcoming guests.

Why they chose this property

Ideal for working folk who need peace and quiet.

- Large sitting room with a 50 inch TV, comfortable seating, real fire and a dining area which is also ideal as a work space.
- It has its own WI FI (up to 34MB) for you to use.
- Small but functional galley kitchen, equipped to cook your own meals.
- 2 Shower rooms with toilets (one of which is an en-suite).
- Garden access with your own patio area and use of the fire pit with seating.
- Two large comfortable bedrooms
Bedroom 1: Double and a single
Bedroom 2: King bed and an ensuite.
Dogs are very welcome (there is one dog bed) for well behaved furry friends (we do have friendly show spaniels ourselves).
There are extra pillows and blankets to snuggle up with in front of a great DVD and a real fire - but the cottage is warmly centrally heated - temperature is controlled by you.
Granby Cottage is very private and set within 12 acres of green belt which we own and you are very welcome to walk your dog(s) around the main grounds.
There are some great local walks too.
The cottage has plenty of off street, private parking.
Do email me if I can help with anything.
