Two characterful Victorian villas set in charming English gardens just a few minutes from Bath’s Unesco-designated centre make up . The Roseate Villa Bath. The welcoming interiors are lavish and evoke the charm and sophistication of Bath’s historic heart, with a harmonious blend of contemporary and modern decor that captures both the modernity and cultural depth of the town. Each en-suite room boasts Egyptian cotton linens and goose-down duvets, while the luxury garden and park view rooms offer a little extra space for those that need it, alongside soothing views of the surrounding flora through large bay windows that allow for lots of natural light, further enhancing the tranquillity of the neutrally toned interiors.

The Roseate Villa Bath’s distinct focus on customer service is exemplified on arrival when guests are welcomed with tea and cakes, a delightful appetiser to breakfast (with beautiful homemade jams and bread), dinner and sumptuous afternoon teas served in the stylish Henrietta bar. A perfectly pretty alfresco dining option exists in the Henrietta Garden with delicious stone-baked pizzas and a comprehensive tea selection, as well as a dedicated cocktail menu, all elevated by the Roseate Villa Bath’s focus on local ingredients and the permeating scent of wildflowers from the gardens.

Bath’s Roseate Villa is a dog-friendly space (and home to a lively little Border Terrier named Muttley) as illustrated by the hotel’s cheery ‘woof’ boxes that come pre-filled filled with dog-friendly treats from Lily’s Kitchen and a tennis ball for playful pooches. Local dog-friendly amenities include the lush gardens of Henrietta Park opposite The Roseate Villa, the Kennet and Avon canal, and the stunning Bath Skyline walk that provides breathtaking vistas of many of the city’s most sensational sights. 

Guests visiting Bath for a holiday will find The Roseate Villa ideally situated just a short, scenery-filled journey from many of the city’s must-see attractions: including the atmospheric Roman Baths, the elegant Regency Crescent, Bath Abbey, the independent shops and cafes that characterise charming Pulteney Bridge, and the Thermae Bath Spa. Boats run nearby with fascinating tours from the iconic Pulteney Weir but water-lovers should consider a traditional Thames Skiff rowing boat, a traditional wooden Punt, or a kayak to better explore Bath from the water, as well as the delightful hamlet of Bathampton and its rich meadows and wetlands.
