The Grove at Lyncombe Vale in Bath is a luxury bed and breakfast, situated up a quiet little valley just a 2 minute drive or 10 minute walk from the bustling city centre. Unusually, the unique feature of Bed and Sculpture at The Grove is your host's portrait and figurative studio that can be visited during your stay; you can even watch the sculptor at work! Your host, Robert Hornyold-Strickland is a leading portrait sculptor and his bronze figurative work is available for sale direct from his home-studio. Or, if you prefer to commission a special portrait bust as special anniversary gift, then this can be planned with Robert during your stay. By commissioning a special portrait bust of your friend or relative, you will leave a lasting legacy for future generations.
Rated 5 gold stars, with an extensive garden and private parking, The Grove at Lyncombe Vale offers guests an enchanting and tranquil stay in an historic Georgian House, giving you the feel of a country house week end stay right within an historic city. Breakfast in our country style kitchen is a sumptious affair with delicious rhubarb, ginger and lemon compote, porridge, cereals and a full cooked breakfast - where our free range eggs come from across the valley. If you have special dietary needs - just let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate you.
The Grove at Lyncombe Vale is quite the perfect destination - located near to the Cotswolds for romantic escapes, relaxing getaways, corporate stays, theatre weekends and private family gatherings alike. If it is sitting by our open fire in the winter that you wish, or croquet with Pimms on the lawn in the summer, you have it all. The bedrooms look onto gardens with pretty views - where at night the only sound you hear will be the of hooting of an owl, the bark of a deer or the scurrying of a busy badger. We look forward to having you to stay.
