Welcome to Fern Cottage

Sue and Pete welcome you to Fern Cottage, Award Winning Bed and Breakfast. We're a smallholding set in 2 acres of conservation/greenbelt area, with panoramic views, yet only 15 minutes from the centre of Bath and Bristol. Our passion is good food and guests can enjoy an exceptional quality breakfast, using local, home grown, home made and organic produce.

We have four double bedrooms with en-suites (two with king size beds), all with panoramic countryside views. Three rooms are in the stable courtyard overlooking the wildlife field and the fourth room is situated at the rear of the cottage. Each room has it’s own separate entrance. Our beautiful accommodation reflects the high standard of quality, attention to detail and offers affordable luxury which is complemented by excellent food and service.

Our Location

We're in an ideal place to see the many local attractions in the West Country, such as Bath, Bristol, Lacock, Castle Combe, Tyntesfield, Dyrham Park, Longleat, Stonehenge, Slimbridge, the Cotswolds and Cheddar. We also have available the Thermae Spa's 2 hour spa session tickets with a 10% discount.

We specialise in giving our guests an exceptional and extensive breakfast menu complimented on by top Chefs Gary Rhodes and Michael Caines on the UKTV Local Food Heroes programme, for using only local/home grown/home made/seasonal and organic produce.  Scroll down the page to see the U Tube video of Sue cooking for the two chefs.  We were one of 5 finalists for the whole of the South West.  We can also provide guests with "Evening Meals" using local/home made/home grown and seasonal produce.  Our evening meals are available in the Guests' Dining Room.  Just bring your own wine!  See our current menu on "Evening Meals" page.
