Living with Host
We are tucked away in a hidden valley around one mile from the Theatre Royal and the centre of Bath. We are walking distance to everything (although it's quite a steep hill on the way home). It's a big house and a large and very private room with en suite, excellent broadband and coffee making facilities. I am afraid we don't offer access to our kitchen or the rest of the house and garden.
Guest Parking
We have one parking space we can make available.
The Area and Transport
We are in an hidden peaceful valley on the southern fringes of Bath, situated opposite the exit from The Paragon School, a small private junior school. We are well back and hidden from view. Our what three words if you check it out sums up the location perfectly. Even though you are sharing our home, the space is very self contained on the top floor of the house, and very quiet. It's a perfect space to wind down and chill after a long day at the theatre.

This is an absolutely beautiful place to stay. So quiet, you feel like you're sleeping in the treetops in a luxury holiday home. Marion is a wonderful host and was there every single time I had a question. I highly recommend.

Thanks so much Ashleigh. It was lovely to meet you and hope Wimbledon was fun.
Had a wonderful stay with Marion. The house is gorgeous in a wonderful area. Marion was a delight. I'd definitely love to stay again in the future!
10th Jun 2025
A nice room with en-suite. Communication was excellent with Marion. The walk to and from the venue had a good hill in both directions so a reasonable level of fitness needed for the walk.
18th Mar 2025
An excellent weeks stay in a rather excellent location with great views and only a 25 minute walk from the theatre! Highly recommended and lovely people too!
18th Nov 2024
I had a lovely stay with Marion. I didn’t spend loads of time with work being super busy but the room was clean, roomy, comfy and cosy to relax after long days. The fridge was only a small fridge for milk for coffees but Bath has to offer some great restaurants to enjoy. Thanks for the stay!
26th Oct 2024
I almost don’t want to tell people how lovely it is staying here, for fear I’ll tour with you and you’ll book before I can! But I truly cannot recommend here enough! Just the most relaxing, wonderful and friendly stay!
19th Aug 2024
Lovely room and friendly& welcoming stay, 20-25min walk from centre but a nice walk even coming back up the hill.
Bed was quite hard, but I guess that's a matter of preference!
21st Jun 2024
An absolutely lovely place to rest your head on tour. A lovely comfy room in a fabulous home. Many thanks for a lovely stay.
An easy walk in but I didn't brave the walk back up the hill. Exercise in the morning Uber at night!
24th May 2024
Beautiful house and a lovely big room. Marion was so helpful too. Highly recommended.
15th May 2024
Fabulous digs in a lovely area of Bath. Lovely host with a beautiful cat.
There is a big hill on the walk home, but I just got taxis each night. But it's worth it for the location.
14th Apr 2024
Marion is a great host, and its a beautiful room in a lovely part of Bath
26th Mar 2024
A beautiful house in a beautiful valley. A steep hill down to the theatre, I took taxis back after the show. 30 stairs to the bedroom, so, not for the unfit.
A lovely place to stay.
25th Sep 2023
Beautiful place to stay, spacious room, Marion is a fantastic host and the whole family is very friendly and welcoming, would highly recommend! Thank you for a wonderful stay in Bath!
27th Aug 2023
Couldn’t fault these digs. Marion was lovely and welcoming whilst respecting my privacy. Really lovely house and the room with ensuite I had was gorgeous.
Thank you for having me would defiantly stay again and recommend these digs!
9th Jul 2023
Beautiful home. Lovely, warm and friendly hosting by Alex who made me feel welcome, especially when I had to have a couple days off for catching a virus. The walk isn’t bad, a bit hilly but really nice when the weathers great. Well worth the stay.
2nd Jun 2023
What a beautiful home ! Close to the theatre too :) the hill is a workout but lovely none the less ! And Ludo the cat !!! Ahhhhhh ludo !
21st Mar 2023
Thanks so much Joe. Was lovely to meet you and good luck in Belfast. Ludo misses you too! xx
An inauspicious start when the taxi driver from the station was unable to find the address, and I had to return to the theatre without dropping my luggage or key. Thanks Richard for transporting me after work to your lovely, secluded hillside house.
7th Nov 2022
So sorry about the muddle John: we do send detailed instructions for finding us. Glad it worked out well and you had a comfortable stay. Our daughter who you met thinks you crossed paths at Glasgow Citizen’s theatre where she was Assistant Director?
Lovely house, lovely room, 20 min walk to theatre royal. David was delightful. Would definitely stay again.
9th Oct 2022
Great room in a lovely setting. Nice walk into town and all communication was great. Would definitely stay again.
1st Jun 2022
Had a lovely stay with Marion and Richard in their beautiful home. Great, spacious room with en suite, lovely walk to the theatre (with a bit of an incline here and there for exercise). Thank you again for having me!
22nd May 2022
Loved my stay in your gorgeous home. Thank you…
6th May 2022
I had a nice room and they were welcoming. The room had a coffee machine which I couldn't figure out so a kettle was provided. The last part of the route back is very dark and quiet which made me slightly anxious but Im sure most would be fine.
6th Apr 2022
i had a wonderful time staying in Marion's beautiful house.
would certainly stay again in the future!
28th Mar 2022
Thanks so much Dan - it was our pleasure.
Thank you for being such a considerate guest. Good luck with the rest of the tour.
Lovely double room, nice and large and in a great location (only 15 minute walk to the theatre). Marion was very friendly and helpful so would highly recommend! I feel the accommodation could be improved by having a kettle in the room and TV.
28th Nov 2021
Thanks Nicholas. We have a kettle if needed - next time!
I really enjoyed my stay here, I just wish I'd had more time to enjoy it. Great room, so quiet and peaceful. Easy walk to the theatre, once you conquered the initial hill, there's also a big hill on the walk back. Would stay again.
18th Oct 2021
A wonderful stay in the most beautiful home with the loveliest of hosts. I had a great time at Paragon House and Marion and Richard were lovely. The room is great, the en-suite super. Coffee machine in room is handy. Fine walk to theatre. Thank you x
19th Sep 2021
Lovely place to stay in a lovely area, Marion & her husband were friendly but also gave you your space, would highly recommend!
15th Sep 2021
Absolutely stunning en suite room in a beautiful home. Great bonus of a free parking spot for the week. Very lovely and welcoming hosts. Best bed I’ve slept in!! Thank you so much for a gorgeous stay xx
27th Aug 2021
An absolute wonderful place to stay, in the heart of beautiful Bath. I felt so welcome & would absolutely recommend if you're visiting the city.
14th Jun 2021
Lovely stay! beautiful house. the internet is a bit patchy but you'll manage. the walk to the theatre is 20 mins it's hilly but there's a less hilly route which takes an extra 5 minutes.
10th Mar 2020
Lovely place to stay, would stay again! Thank you!
25th Feb 2020
A very nice room in a beautiful house. Worth the climb.
16th Feb 2020
5 Stars accross the board. A really beautiful house. Marion and Richard made me very welcome which helped a great deal during a very difficult Tech/Production week. Can't praise it enough.
15th Dec 2019
A bit further to walk to theatre than expected and sadly no kettle but I knew there wasn’t any access to a kitchen it was a lovely room but a bit cold but in general I was happy a bit if a hike up the drive and stairs But I’m all pleasant stay
16th Nov 2019
great communication and friendly hosts. Lovely room and house. Lovely view of trees out the window - not for you if you want to be in the midst shops and cafes but great to get a bit of space if you like that.
27th Oct 2019
Beautiful house with big ensuite bedroom. Though advertised, not being able to use the kitchen is a drawback and I have never come across this before in theatre digs. Spectacular, but in future I shall look for something simpler.
20th May 2019
Absolutely loved my time with Marion and Richard! Stunning house and would definitely recommend! X
13th Apr 2019
I had a great stay at Marion’s; the room was very quiet, comfortable and sunny and I had my own bathroom opposite. It is a beautiful house and I would highly recommend.
4th Mar 2019
I adored staying here the room has a charming view of forests and gardens and an extremely comfortable large bed and fabulous walk in shower room. Marion and Richard are friendly and welcoming I definitely recommend it and would love to stay again.
1st Oct 2018
Couldnt have asked for a more wonderful place to stay..such a gorgeous house in a stunning area.the room was perfect and hosts very friendly. cant fault my stay.thankyou
17th Jun 2018
Lovely digs, although a 20 minute hilly walk to find breakfast!
12th Jun 2018
Thanks so much Tim and glad you liked the house. Apologies - we should have pointed you in the direction of the Widcombe Deli - ten minutes away.
Marion & Richard are lovely & welcoming! The house is amazing & the room/wet room are just divine. Such an amazing house. 10 minutes walk to the station and twenty minutes to the theatre. A bit longer uphill on the way back. Would stay again
22nd Apr 2018
Lovely hosts. Beautiful house. 20-25 minute walk to the theatre. Lovely en-suite room on the top floor of the house, sadly no use of the kitchen but I knew this before arrival. Thank you for a lovely stay in your beautiful home x
3rd Apr 2018
Lovely big room ensuite shower in amazing house. Unfortunately the snow arrived and couldn't get taxis back. 20 min walk into theatre down hill, longer walk back. But a stunning house and friendly people
6th Mar 2018
Lovely large room in a really beautiful home, walking distance into city centre. Hosts were very helpful and friendly. It is up a steep hill but a great location nonetheless. Good value for Bath. Would stay again. Ensuite wetroom has THE BEST SHOWER!
30th Oct 2017
It was perfect. I really couldn't believe how beautiful it was when I got there. Perfect hosts. Lovely walk to and from Thatre or 5 quid taxi. I'll definitely stay again.
22nd Oct 2017
Lovely home and hosts! Beautiful location and not a bad walk from the town centre.
21st Jun 2017
Marion had a beautiful house. The room was nice and very comfortable. I loved the ensuite wet room! The walk to the theatre is about 20 minutes and very pleasant. I'd definitely stay again. Thank you so much.
3rd May 2017
Charming people with a lovely home offering a large room with high ceilings and sash windows and a power shower in the en suite. Yes it is up a hill, but that didn't bother me as I took my bicycle. 5 minutes cycle to the theatre or a 20 minute walk.
28th Feb 2017
Absolutely beautiful house and very friendly hosts. A bit of a walk from the theatre (but doable). I'd happily stay there again.
2nd Jan 2017
Extremely pleasant room with en suite facilities, very friendly hosts, amazingly beautiful location (advise driving as it is a little way out and quite hilly route). Would definitely stay again without question.
4th Jul 2016
A lovely stay in a beautiful house. I was made to feel so welcome and comfortable. Highly recommended!
3rd Jul 2016
Richard & Marion are lovely hosts. Comfortable, quiet stay in a lovely part of Bath. Steep hill from town, but worth the exercise. Alternative taxi fare @ £5-6
25th May 2016
Lovely house with a really nice room and ensuite. No use of kitchen and no kettle etc in room. Walk to the TRB is about 25 minutes but also only about £6 in a taxi. Lovely digs but being unable to use the kitchen is a massive flaw.
17th Apr 2016
Stunning room at the top of a gorgeous house. Steep hill but worth it for lovely position. On station side so very convenient for arrival and departure. Very happy there.
14th Apr 2016
Very enjoyable stay with great en-suite but there is no access to the kitchen and there are no tea and coffee facilities in the room.
9th Mar 2016
This home is wonderful, almost palatial! Richard, Marion and Izzie are lovely people and this all adds up to the best digs I've stayed in! It's an uphill walk from town (15-20 mins up a 14% incline) but well worth it - I'd stay again in a heartbeat!
