Pooches, Prosecco and hot plunges

Dinner out on the deck in the evening sunshine with a drop of Prosecco? Nice. Follow up with a plunge into the five-seat hot tub and a front-row seat on the stars? Nicer. Room for 18 family, friends, hens, stags and corporates? Even better. Dogs too? Of course. And all within striking distance of boho Bristol and beautiful Bath. Perfect.

Daffodil Lodge is wooden and wonderful. A modern cabin with a sunny, south-facing garden, it comes with relaxation writ large, easy indoor-outdoor flow, and a humungous space for socialising and slurping. There’s even step-free ground-floor living for anyone with restricted mobility. At Daffodil, nobody misses out.

Outside, you’ve a quarter of an acre for ball games, barbecues and being together in the sunshine. Burst open the four metre-wide bi-folds and spill out onto a south-facing scorcher of a deck, perfect for summer dining and hot-tub dipping. Wrap things up with a game of rounders on the lawn.

Inside, you’ll keep your Instagram feed busy with a 32 square-metre living and dining area, perfect for moving from cooking in the kitchen to eating around the chunky table to lazing around in the living space. Stay there for movies on the 50-inch TV, surfing and streaming on the Sky Wi-Fi, and sounds on the Bose speaker system.

Hot tubs, Gardens and grounds

Those bi-fold doors open wide. Four metres wide. They’re an open invitation to float out onto the big deck and drink in the sun. Linger longer over a hearty supper around the table and chairs whipped up on the range oven or the coal barbie.

It’s south-facing out there. So even winter sunshine will feel like a Seychelles summer. Lounge around on the lawn, up the pace with a game of rounders, finish off the day in the fixed, five-seat hot tub gazing at galaxies and passing the Prosecco.

Cooking and dining

Closet Ainsley Harriott among you? You’ll love the modern kitchen with the range oven and six-burner hob. More inclined to recline than rustle up a risotto? No problem. We have pro chefs only too happy to offer a one-off celebration or fully catered break. While you count your toes in the hot tub.

Fancy more lounging and lazing? Get on the delivery apps for top takeaways from Pizza Gogo – fresh dough made daily – or Oldfield’s fish and chips, also offering cooked chicken. Or try something different? Goulash is the home of Hungarian street food. Pork and pepper omelette, maybe?

Classic British menus come with a wicked twist at The Cross House in Doynton, such as chargrilled Cornish sea bream fillet with warm Niçoise salad, or twice-baked sun-blushed tomato, goats’ cheese and hazelnut souffle. Or how about brioche burgers or cider, saffron and bacon mussels at the Hollybush?

Get seriously carnivorous with the Rose and Crown’s mixed grill – or not, with the vegan ‘sriracha and beyond’ burger. Get some Greek down you, with kleftika, souvlaki and horiatiki salad at Mediterranean marvel Opa Meze in Bath. Or maybe it’ll be turmeric-grilled squid sprinkled with crunchy fried Thai garlic at The Giggling Squid?

What people say

What people say

Great place, top set up! Just what I had expected, we had a brilliant weekend Would definitely recommend. - Ed
Recently had a hen do here and it was a fab location for it! Enough room for everyone with a big kitchen and diner. Garden & hot tub was great too. It’s about 25 mins from Bristol town as well. Would definitely recommended! Great communications from the owners too. - Paige
The place was incredible. The large table, which we hosted an amazing meal on is undersold in the image. It's banquette fit. Amazingly beautiful surroundings, and loads of room to host a good size group as described. The hot tub is smashing. And the speaker supplied with the house is definitely good enough to have tunes on at a social level (thought it worth mentioning if people thought it was a tiny speaker, it's not). The grass was lush on the feet too - hope everyone has a blast when they visit! - James

Bath, surf and waves

In beautiful Bath, a few shots of the Royal Crescent should get tongues wagging on Insta. Then swim the rooftop waters at Bath Thermae Spa. Come down to sea level to surf inland at The Wave. Watch money being made at The Royal Mint Experience. Or just part with a few pounds and cuddle the cuties at Pennywell Farm.
