The Old Parsonage offers bed and breakfast accommodation at a rustic 17th century listed sandstone house retaining its original staircase in a village location beside the A37 south of Bristol. Individually-decorated rooms all boast an en suite bathroom, tea and coffee provisions and a flat-screen TV. Featuring carved mahogany or four-poster beds, rooms also showcase details like chandeliers and antiques. One room adds a kitchenette. There are also self-catering flats. Facilities include a courtyard garden, guest lounge, free Wi-Fi throughout and free parking. A free full English breakfast featuring cooked options plus homemade bread is included. There are pubs serving food in Farrington Gurney village and its hinterland. The Old Parsonage is close to the picturesque Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and about 15 miles from Bristol Zoo. It’s about 25 minutes’ drive from the World Heritage Site city of Bath with its Roman baths and Georgian architecture.
The rooms at this homely and characterful property largely lived up to guests' expectations. They were frequently described as cosy, spacious and well-cleaned. Reviewers also said they liked the generously-sized modern en suite bathrooms. Those on longer stays appreciated the availability of self-catering flats and a room with a kitchenette. The owners reportedly took pride in the building, keeping it well-maintained.
This sympathetically-converted historic property's location beside the A37 made it a doddle to drive to Bristol, Bath, Wells and area attractions, according to many drivers, who also appreciated having a petrol station nearby. For non-motorists, the bus stop outside was a bonus. It was also within easy walking distance of village dining options, which guests thought was convenient.
The friendly and convivial hosts reportedly offered guests a warm welcome plus plenty of local knowledge and did their best to ensure a pleasant stay for all. The consensus among most reviewers was that the full English breakfast was scrumptious and freshly-prepared.
Even though most reviewers seemed to be pleased with the quality of the rooms, a few critics noted occasional cleanliness or maintenance issues. These included aging mattresses, bathrooms that could have been more extensively cleaned, occasionally weak water pressure and decor that wasn't to everyone's taste in some rooms.
There were rooms in which some light sleepers reported having their sleep interrupted by occasional traffic noise from the road.
A few visitors described this property's location as being a bit out of the way. Due to its rural location in the Mendip Hills, dining options and amenities nearby were sometimes scarce.
