Large room and comfortable bed; the host went out of her way to be welcoming and make sure I had what I needed. The location is good for accessing main road links into and out of Bristol.

    “Ok location to visit the Bristol centre. The host is very friendly and welcome us. Enough facilities in the room: toaster/microwave. TV is modern enough for watching Disney+.”

    “Part of someone’s home and the bedroom was a large attic conversion with everything you need such as en-suite, microwave, kettle and crockery. Also it was a very homely room with books and lovely soft furnishings.”

This lovely warm private home has a spacious loft room hideaway with an ensuite bathroom and occupies the whole of the top floor. It overlooks the Frome valley. It contains a kingsize bed, TV and an area for making tea and toast. Our home is is only 100metres from a main road bus route. Very easily accessible from M32. Near UWE (walking distance from Glenside campus), Rolls Royce, British Aerospace and Aztec West. Free parking with no permits needed! This is good for solo travellers, couples, students, and business travellers.
Welcome to our homestay. We love to welcome guests form all over the world and will try to make your stay as memorable as possible.
Our home is next to the beautiful Eastville Park and if you like walking you could walk all the way along the Frome Valley into the Cotswolds and beyond! Easy access from the M4 and M5 via the M32 which is a few minutes drive from our house (J2). Great for access to UWE (especially Glenside campus) by car, bike or bus. A short bus ride or drive into the city centre for shopping in Cabot Circus or up the M32 to Cribbs Causeway shopping Mall. You can eat out round the corner (indian) or sample the amazing cuisine that the rest of Bristol has to offer.
