We had a wonderful time at the Athole Guest House. Wolfgang is an extremely gracious host, making sure that all of our needs were met and more. My husband and I were traveling with our two grade school age children. Our guest room was quite large and very comfortable. I enjoyed sitting in the bay window and have a little... more

Just returned from a trip that took me all over Great Britain and Ireland - the Athole was an amazing place to stay. First, Bath is beautiful - it was way more spectacular than I thought it would be. The Athole was a great place to stay - free wifi, little game room, garden and only a ten minute walk... more

I must say it was an absolute pleasure to stay at the Athole Guest House. We were a party of four girls who stayed for the weekend to incorporate a spa visit. Now I've stayed in a few guest houses over the years and Athole surpasses anything previous. The rooms are spacious, clean and the en-suites are lovely. The breakfast... more

I just returned from a month in England (June 08) and Athole Guest House was everything and more. Wolfgang is an incredible host! When I arrived it was raining so he drove me and another couple to town for dinner. He drives to and picks up everyone using the train system by request. He and his wife's breakfast is to... more

Wolfgang met us at the train station platform in the afternoon and from the beginning was very determined that we should have a quality stay. He even insisted on carrying our bags up the stairs in the wonderful old guest house. The next afternoon after our tours we relaxed in the garden with the beautiful flowers and birds while we... more

We stayed overnight at the Athole, arriving quite late but the host was genial and accommodating. My daughter flew in to the UK arriving as we sat down for breakfast and on arrival was invited to join us by the owner. The food was mostly either home made or organic and absolutely delicious. As we checked out I reminded the... more

We were recently married in Somerset and decided that on the way baack to Essex, we would have a Spa Break Honeymoon in Bath. I found Athole House on the internet and the packages offered instantly attracted me. On arrival, we were warmly welcomed and shown around the beautiful house and garden. When shown to our room, we were instantly... more

The Athole House was our first B&B After leaving London. When we arrived we received an extremly warm welcome from wolfgang. Wolfgang should receive A golden star award for being such a wonderful host. There were six of us, all family members and we all felt at home. When it was time to leave the three ladies gave wolfgang a... more

After only 5 minutes at the Athole Guest House, we all asked why go to London when you can get such wonderful accommodation here. Our 3 week stay in the UK was based around the dates that we were able to book our 3 day stay at this guest house and it was well worth it. The only problem was... more
