Bed & Breakfasts along the Great West Way

Find charming bed and breakfasts along the Great West Way, offering friendly hospitality, comfortable rooms, and local character.

If any accommodation option is worthy of describing itself as a ‘home from home’, it is the bed and breakfast. With a welcoming host to greet you on arrival, a cosy house to relax in and a well-tended garden - B&Bs are the epitome of homely hospitality. With a range of bed and breakfasts in Bristol, Bath, Wiltshire and along the Thames, the Great West Way has you covered when it comes to living like a local.

Why Stay at a Bed & Breakfast?

A comfortable bed and a full English breakfast are the defining features of a bed and breakfast, so you can be sure considerable care will have gone into perfecting both of these essential attributes. Like Goldilocks, go in search of the one that is just right for you.

It’s the opportunity to not just peek inside a local home, but to sleep in it. Everything you see, from the vintage floral crockery in the dining room to the contemporary artwork in the bedroom, can give you some idea of local likes and dislikes. You can even eat what your hosts eat - it’s the perfect place to try a lovingly-cooked Full English breakfast. (Although since it’s such a hearty feast, most Brits only indulge at the weekend).

Another appeal of a bed and breakfast stay can be the opportunity to meet and talk to your host. B&B owners have a lively reputation for being eccentric, entertaining characters. While bed and breakfasts these days come in all shapes and sizes - many of them luxurious enough to rival the fanciest hotels - you can be sure each will have a charming owner, passionate about ensuring you enjoy the best stay. So don’t be afraid to ask them for sightseeing tips, or even sit down for that cup of tea and slice of cake some offer on arrival… you never know what interesting information you might find out.

Experience Local Culture at a B&B

A stay at one of these family-run guest houses can be about much more. If you’re the sort of traveller who likes to immerse yourself in the local culture of the places you visit, it can offer an insight into that most mysterious concept: ‘Englishness’.

The Castle Inn, Castle Combe

Located in Castle Combe, one of the prettiest villages in England and the Cotswolds, is The Castle Inn, a 12^th Century pub. Offering local beverages and a modern take on traditional pub food, relaxed dining, outdoor terrace and 12 comfortable bedrooms, it’s the perfect place to stay and enjoy the local life during your journey along the Great West Way.

Brooks Guesthouse in Bath

Brooks Guesthouse Bath is an award-winning 4-star boutique guesthouse in Bath city centre, located just 350 metres from the famous Royal Crescent. Each bedroom is beautifully decorated with a mix of antique, modern décor and local character. During your stay at this charming bed and breakfast, enjoy locally sourced dishes to start the day, Eggs Benedict, Full English or Smoked Salmon and Scrambled Eggs to name a few! Just a 10-minute walk to all the key attractions and shopping streets in Bath, staying at Brooks Guesthouse is the perfect way to experience local culture in this World Heritage City.
