We recently stayed at Villa Magdala and were very impressed with the really friendly service as supplied by Kim and her team. Absolutely nothing was too much trouble and we have never come across such happy smiley people. The attention to detail at the VM is what makes it stand out from other establishments. The room we stayed in was... More

Me and my partner stayed at the Villa Magdala on the 3rd May 13. The B&B deserves the 5* that it's been awarded. The staff are lovely, we turned up a few hours early but they were only to happy to let us park our car in their car park. (I have read another review that says about how small... More

Went for a 3 day trip in the south of UK. This was our first stay in a B&B ever. Reception was very warm, lots of information was given freely over afternoon tea. Beautiful room, nice bathroom, very clean. Breakfast: they make you anything you want, FRESH. All food comes from local farms. Excellent location and free parking lot (but... More

We stumbled upon Villa Magdala as we were driving around England and hadn't made prior accommodation arrangements. We were greeted by lovely Chrissy (staff) who kindly showed us two different rooms (we chose room 9)before we decided to stay. We were so impressed that we decided immediately that we would stay 2 nights! Not only that, since I had 4... More

We stayed in a standard room (£130) it was lovely I felt like I was in my... More

This BB is in a good location with 10min walk to town. We paid £186 per night to include breakfast and parking. The reviews were all very good which is why I decided to pay that amount of money. Sadly our experience was not good. We booked an extra large room with a King size bed overlooking the garden. (See... More

We're sorry you didn't enjoy your stay. You had made your reservation through Booking.com booking one of our mid-range rooms. On arrival you insisted that the bed in your room was not king-size and we could nothing to persuade you that UK standard bed sizing makes it clear that king-size is 60 inches by 72 inches, which was the size...

Like DavidCA1 i found this through the tourist information and enjoyed the stay, the breakfast and found the staff very friendly. Short walk from Bath, free parking, clean rooms and child friendly. Very satisfied.

WE stayed at Villa Magdala from the 22nd to the 25th April. We choose one of their 'Best' rooms and I have nothing but praise both for the room itself and for the service during our stay.
