We had a great time in James and Liz’s flat. Was really close to Bedminster station so very easy to get to from Temple Meads. Lovely to arrive to find milk in the fridge so we could have a cup of tea and sit by the fire that had been set up for us! They had also left fruit, cereals and croissants which was great to have at hand as we didn’t know where a shop was until we’d explored a little more.

The area itself if definitely worth exploring, we took a walk up to North Street and found a great shop called ‘Rhubarb Jumble’, if you like things from a bygone era then this is the shop for you! The ‘Lounge’ café is also on this road, it seems to be a chain in the Bristol area, this one was charming and close by for a good breakfast and Bloody Mary.

Overall our stay was welcoming and comfortable. Our hosts were at hand if we needed them and gave us good recommendations for the local area, including the Windmill pub – just round the corner and they do a yummy roast dinner! We had our own bit of garden to go in if we wanted to and our own front door, so it was very private - although we knew our hosts were at hand if we needed them.

Thanks Liz and James for a lovely stay, if we come to Bristol again we’d definitely stay with you again.
