A shimmering apartment for two with a tranquil terraced courtyard garden

In the golden heart of classic Georgian Bath is a shimmering apartment for two with a tranquil terraced courtyard garden. Bask in the glow of this beautifully decorated home with handsome Georgian proportions and elegant period details. Surrounded by historic architecture, galleries, museums, fine restaurants and gorgeous boutiques, this wonderful apartment has the Midas touch.

Summary

Beautiful Georgian garden apartment for 2
Wonderful lounge with original sash windows and working shutters
The bedroom has a super king bed which can also be twins
Contemporary bathroom with bath and shower over
Large kitchen diner with french doors leading out to a terraced courtyard garden with table and chairs for 2
So centrally located, only a few minutes walk from all of Baths attractions
Children age 7 and above welcome

The large elegant living room has lofty ceilings, ornate cornices, an antique chandelier and gorgeous muted gold papered walls. Tall sash windows with working shutters overlook the smart historic Queensbury hotel on a listed Georgian terrace complete with black iron railings and decorative balconies. Two large handsome sofas and a comfortable armchair surround a large grey marble fireplace with mirror over. There is a TV with DVD and a selection of films, books and games.

The bedroom is romantic, tranquil and similarly decorated in gold tones, with a 6'bed (which can be made up as a twin room with two 3' beds.) An antique wardrobe sits in a wide alcove with a central chest of drawers and an easy chair and iPod docking clock radio placed by the window with its sweeping drapes.

The apartment continues down three steps to a delightful curved lobby lined with bookish wallpaper, with doors into the bathroom, utility cupboard and kitchen.

The contemporary bathroom is fully tiled in travertine with a bath (with shower over), a hand basin and WC. There is a separate utility cupboard housing a combined washing machine and dryer, domestic appliances and shelf space.

The kitchen combines the old with the new, with an antique pine table and contemporary chairs to seat 4, in front of an exposed bath stone chimney breast. Surrounding this is a contemporary glossy cream and grey kitchen with a well organised array of crockery and cutlery. The kitchen provides an induction hob, an electric oven, a microwave, dishwasher, and a large Smeg fridge and small separate freezer. French doors lead out to a charming terraced courtyard garden.

The garden is a green sanctuary with bath stone walls, broad stone steps and mature trees and shrubs on 3 levels. You can hear the gentle chimes of The Christchurch on Julian Road. A store-room provides two folding outdoor chairs and a table for alfresco dining.
Make yourself comfortable in this apartment, which features a fireplace. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a microwave and a washing machine.
Take in the views from a garden.

This property was exactly as advertised and shown in the pictures. The kitchen has everything you'd need for cooking meals and we cooked at "home" more than we ate at restaurants. The location was ideal to walking to everything you'd want to see and visit. The neighborhood was very quiet and our "neighbor" downstairs, Nigel, is a gem to chat with. Would absolutely stay here again.

Tho apartment is patently sublime.Its location - a 3 minute walk to The Circus - is perfect.The interior is deliciously decorated.The fully equipped kitchen, spacious bathroom, generous private garden, large firm king bed, quaint and stylish sitting room, and laundry facilities make this apartment superior to all others we stayed in during our 5 week European holiday. Amazing!

Good location so managed to leave the car parked for while of our stay. Comfortable bedroom, living room and handy kitchen with terrace. Plenty of room, but bathroom was in need of minor maintenance and water never got that warm. But suitable for a short stay.

Our Stay at Russel Street.

We were mostly positive about our stay. The kitchen was very well-equipped and stocked with an excellent variety and quantity of crockery, cutlery and glassware. The folder contained comprehensive information on restaurants etc. The location was good with a mini market just around the corner for every day needs, with larger stores a comfortable walk away. We enjoyed the proximity to the Royal Victoria Park and the Botanical Gardens. We felt the cleaning was a little deficient in a couple of areas - the floor behind the bathroom door along the bottom of the bath seemed neglected. There was grit on the floor of the wardrobe. The headboard of the bed was dusty as were the curtains. The sheer curtain in the bedroom looked as though it could do with a wash. The bath mat did not look clean. The toilet seat was loose and skewed. There were initial problems maintaining an internet connection but Ray came in and fixed it on the Tuesday (and seemed to have fixed the toilet seat as well!). He left a bottle of champagne in the fridge as compensation for the inconvenience. I enjoyed reading in the garden. The garden furniture was rusty and rickety. We narrowly avoided breaking a glass which fell over when placed on the table. The biggest negative of all was that we could not gain access to the apartment when we arrived because we had been given the incorrect code to open the key box. We could not get any response from any of the contact numbers we had been given.

Beautiful and cool property

My daughter and I stayed in this flat during the two hottest days England has ever had (so far). We were able to stay cool, thanks to blinds and shutters shut and an ice cube tray for the freezer. The kitchen was well equipped and it was very quiet when we sat out back in the garden We will definitely come back! Very helpful property manager and excellent communication despite our last minute booking over a weekend.

Lovely apartment

This was our 2nd stay in the Russel Garden apartment and it was just as good as the first, except that it was too cold to sit in the lovely little walled garden. Everything is very high quality and comfortable. We love the spacious elegant sitting room and the bed is very big and comfortable. Kitchen and bathroom are very well fitted and have everything you need. The location is great, quiet yet within walking distance of the city centre.

Absolutely excellent

This was a perfect place to stay. The apartment is immaculate and everything works well. Everything is good quality, from the welcome pack to the bath towels. We were met by Sue, the owner, who showed us round and also gave us some useful tips about the area. The apartment is very comfortable and quiet and perfectly placed in a lovely peaceful and interesting part of Bath.
