Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Kennet and Avon Canal

We have just had the most incredible stay at Nichola’s place for my sister’s hen do. From the moment we arrived, she was warm and welcoming and met us to show us around. She also came to say bye at the end of our stay and asked how we got on which was lovely. The house itself is amazing and somehow exceeded our expectations- the photos look brilliant but in person it is stunning! Would definitely recommend!

Amazing place !! Super host. Had the most incredible time.

Joe was an amazing host it was our first holiday away and for my little dog to we got ourselves bit lost gave Joe a call it wasn’t a problem he gave very good instructions and we found him and had the best greeting from Joe and Ernie the cottage was absolutely stunning the grounds are breath taking it’s literally a slice of heaven my little dog loved his stay just as much and his new friend Ernie Joe was incredible the whole time couldn’t of asked for better at all we have booked our second stay already it was that amazing keep it up Joe it’s truely amazing

The home is beautiful, exactly as pictured, in excellent condition and perfectly clean. The location is picturesque and quite private. Hermione is an excellent host and was extremely helpful during our stay, providing recommendations for food, things to see and do as well as support for any issues we had. We would absolutely stay here again, it was an exemplary experience!

Jo’s lodge was beautiful and was a lovely stay I enjoyed it very much. It’s close from the station and the town. The home was very clean and tidy and such a warm cosy environment. I will definitely return! Bryony

This is the 2ndb time my parents have asked me to book this place as they loved it so much the first time. They cycle from the station and Amy always provides a warm welcome and makes them feel at home. They love exploring the area on thier bicycles and Chippenham on a Saturday is bustling with the farmers market and nice places to have lunch. They love the tranquility of Stanley Chaple and sitting at the kitchen table with the sun pouring in. I'm sure they'll be back again!

Stayed here with my two young kids and we had a great time - Rachel put loads of toys in the place for us (even bath toys!) and there was plenty of space for us all. Plus a playground opposite and heaps of local recommendations for us to explore.

Stayed here with a family consisting of 4 adults, 3 kids and a new born baby and plenty of space for us all. The kids were kept entertained and occupied with the toys in the house which is a very helpful touch as it meant we didn't have to bring any. As described, the family bedrooms are huge and in no way did we feel cramped in the house. The kitchen/lounge area was spacious and very comfortable, the kitchen is very well stocked with everything you need. A lovely gift basket was left with coffee and snacks etc. The parking is a bit of a pain but is made very clear from the start by the owners so it's not a surprise when you arrive, just if you have lots to carry then be prepared for plenty of trips. All in all though we had a lovely time and would recommend.

This property is in such a beautiful village, that we never wanted to leave! The space is bright and airy, w/everything needed to be comfy. There’s a binder w/everything you need to know, plus info about the 2 local pubs & dining options, etc. (Thurs. night at the Catherine Wheel is a MUST!). You won’t find anything remotely touristy in the village, which is why we loved it so, but it’s perfectly situated for easy drives to Bath, the Cotswolds, Diddly Squat Farm & The Farmer’s Dog (for Top Gear/Jeremy Clarkson fans), and so much more! Check out Soho Farmhouse in Chipping Norton for a truly fantastic outing! The Goat Shed has a double gate behind which you and your vehicle are safe and secure (although there’s no need for concern of that in Marshfield!). A grass lawn awaits your pet or children to play in, with zero risk of danger or escape. These 2 ladies from Canada and the U.S highly recommend a stay here (just bring a face cloth, as that was the only thing missing)!

Beautiful place to stay! Lovely and clean and in walking distance to everything. We had a wonderful stay here for my birthday! Looking forward to a return visit!

Lovely little Annex nestled in beautiful countryside, spotlessly clean, very peaceful and really friendly hosts! Thank you for having me to stay 😁

We had a wonderful two nights at Louise's and would have stayed longer had the apartment been free. Everything about the apartment was elegant, the street , the windows, height of ceiling, quality of the furnitiure, fixtures and fittings. The kitchen was have everything we needed. Check in and Check out was very simple using key box. The appartment is no more than 10mins from centre. There is no parking in the street but the Bath Cricket Club carpark was only 15mins away, we left our car there for all our stay, fees paid in advance.

Great value for money. Ann went over and above, as described on other reviews. Communicated brilliantly when we were informing her of what was going on after our car broke down. After a long drive it was great that some essentials were provided. There’s was great info and tips about the local area. She also left us a card and a sweet treat since we were on our honeymoon. The peg wall of leaflets is a lovely touch. Amazingly close to the white horse as well. We didn’t use the laundry facilities but it was great that it was there. Thanks for a great stay.

Absolutely beautiful accommodation and a beautiful garden! Everything was spotlessly clean and there was more provided than I expected. Lucy is a fantastic host! I highly recommend this lovely place in a picturesque part of the country.

It's a very nice place which you will wish to go again. Great host.

Catherines place was fantastic as soon as we walked it it smelt lovely and the cleanest airbnb we have ever stayed in. It was in a 5 minute walk to the Outlet Village and the Steam museum. It was also very convenient as we were going to our sons wedding at The Pear Tree in Purton and Catherine was very kind as to let us check out a little later.

Was a great check in with John who gave clear instructions and a brief intro to the apartment. It’s an historic building nestled in a beautiful secluded spot but immediately accessible to Stroud including a walkable supermarket. We were treated to a brass band on Sunday morning from the park bandstand opposite! Comfortable and cosy interior perfect for our short stay. John was the perfect gentleman and host

Thanks again Janie - 3rd visit - still great 🤩

Victoria's property is exquisitely decorated and furnished throughout. The location is perfect for a short stroll into the town centre and access to the disused railway walking trail opposite. The living room is large and very light and airy with a high ceiling. Although at first floor level, the back door opens out onto a lovely enclosed garden. Ideal for our dog. Above all, we were very surprised as to how peaceful and quiet the location was. Thoroughly recommend it, couldn't have wished for any more, Victoria had thought of everything.

Lisa"s penthouse exceeded our expectations. It was amazing.. The decor is stylish and comfortable, the views are spectacular and the location is peaceful and private. Lisa is a brilliant host. She was exceptionally responsive, professional and very helpful in all her communications with us. The whole experience was so good we stayed for an extra 2 nights! We can't recommend this property enough. We would love to return when we visit the UK again ❤️

What an amazing AirBnB stay! The flat was stunning, historic, beautifully eccentric, well appointed, comfortable, and well located. What more could you ask for? My family loved it and would absolutely stay here again when back in Bath. ❤️

We stayed in this lovely apartment for 2 weeks, and it was wonderful! The apartment is very pretty and clean, located in a pretty area too, and it had everything we needed and more (even detergent, aluminium foil, olive oil... all the little things you don't think of but that make a difference!). The location is fantastic, a minute from the Abbey and the giant plane tree, restaurants, the Roman Bath, shopping, everything! Of course being so close in the city centre means that you will hear the party goers on a Friday or Saturday night, but even so we would book this place again. The hosts are very responsive, friendly, flexible, accommodating - we received an extra duvet a few hours after our request, really sweet. And it's right across from the Sally Lunn house, Bath's oldest house with a great menu and these wonderfully tasty Sally Lunn buns!

Beautiful apartment, felt right at home! Me and my partner, enjoyed spending time at the apartment just as much as we did going into the enticing bath! So long as you don’t mind every so often encountering the usual bangs and sounds of car maintenance. From being located above the garage. It is the perfect location!

For a first homestay in the U.K., I feel this location will be difficult to beat. You are, literally, adjacent to the Roman baths… AND the modern ones, too! You’re just steps from shops and the Abbey, and the heart of the old city Bath—Aquae Sulis. Charlotte was an outstanding host, offering an extremely thoughtful and well-appointed apartment. And the view!! One of the very best I’ve ever experienced. Thank you!
