A local icon The Martin's Arms at Colston Bassett is perfect all year round. In the winter months you can tuck yourself away in the cosy indoors next to a roaring fire surrounded by locals. Throughout the warmer months venture outside to the large garden for some al fresco dining. Only 1 mile away you can access by car or if you have time to spare it is a lovely rural walk to the village.

Rest & Relaxation

Fancy relaxing during your stay? Then this is the place to go. Their treatments use Elemis and ESPA and truly make you leave feeling more relaxed then ever. You're well looked after during your time by attentive and thoughtful Therapists. I definitely recommend a peak at the Cocktail Menu and treating yourself to a quintessentially British afternoon tea - think finger sandwiches and mini cakes. Perfect for a bit of alone time, R&R with friends or mother/daughter treat.
