We respect that some may wish to enjoy their visit in peace, and will not be disturbed. But know we are only a phone call away for any queries. The Chew Valley is known for the great eateries and fantastic country side. With many of the local villages mentioned in the Doomsday book of 1086 there is no shortage of historic buildings and folklore. Chew Valley fishing lake and weir is a 5 minute drive as is Maes Knoll Tump, an Iron age Hill Fort. Chew Valley Lake is a great place to feed the ducks and offers parking and has a Fish and Chip take away. There is a bus stop 50 yards from the cottage which takes you into Bristol City Center. There are also excellent local walks and cycle routes. The cottage is spaced out over 3 floors, so as much as young children are welcome please ensure they are watched at all times. Baby gates can be used in certain areas of the house and there are steep steps to the garden.
