I LOVED the Old Court, in case you couldn't deduce that from the title. If you hadn't figured it out, this B&B has been converted from an Old Court house. I came with 2 of my friends and we stayed in the Guy Fawkes' Jail Cell! How ADORABLE. In my 2 week trip in the UK I don't think I... More

Stayed in the Queen Anne Boleyn Jail cell, super comfy king size bed with feather duvet and pillows. Great nights sleep, bathroom is across the hall but you have a key so its kept private...if you bother to use it! Breakfast was lovely, the BB is quirky, fun and Nancy and co are very welcoming. Used the Jacuzzi room, excellent... More

We used a 'unique places to stay' voucher for one night at The Old Court and we couldn't have picked a better b&b for our getaway. Nancy runs a wonderful establishment and is a friendly and ever-helpful host - she even gave us an upgrade on our room since she had the space available! We stayed in the beautiful King's... More

The building looks fantastic from the outside and does not disappoint on the inside. The decoration has been done sympathetically and to an excellent standard. Our hostess greeted us, showed us to our room then made us a cup of tea and stopped for a nice long chat. Even though it is her family's home, she encouraged us to wander... More

After receiving a voucher for unique places to stay for my 60th birthday, we decided to stay at the Old Court which is in an excellent location for visiting Bath, Bristol, Wells, Cheddar and other Somerset sights by car. The B&B was very atmospheric and felt steeped in history, if only the walls could talk. Nancy was very welcoming, helpful... More

Had a great nights stay in the barristers quarters - we had 2 floors to ourselves - the bathroom and WC downstairs and the shower was great - the bath was lovely and deep and the water was constant and boiling. We also had a separate WC upstairs and a really comfortable room with 4 poster bed, sofa and ample... More

My first experience of this hotel was from "Unique places to stay" gift vouchers. It sounded querky, and something different to experience. We turned up very early and made an attempt to find the reception entrance - that was perplexing. Jails are supposed to be difficult to break out of, not into! I gave up and returned at the check...

This was a gift for my husbands 60th birthday and was a most enjoyable and unique experience. We stayed in the 'Jack the Ripper' cell. You get exactly what you book and the pictures are very representative of the room (jail cell)! Its small and compact but so cozy and atmospheric and an experience that I would recommend to anyone...

We were upgraded for free, we felt at home in this very comfortable B&B, I highly recommend here, the staff & the whole setup is very laid back & friendly. I stayed here after going to Bristol airport, the location was ideal, as I wanted to go sight seeing in Bath the next day. Hope to go back here again.

We booked this hotel via their website for one night whilst going to a wedding nearby. After a few months we received an email cancelling our room as the owner was away, although the owner may well be away, the real reason is because we only booked one night over a bank holiday! We were left with no where to... More
