Trimnells House has run for several successfully years as a B&B. ( Check us out on Tripadvisor.) We found our guests were often impressed by the house, village and gardens but did not have the time to make use of them so we have moved into guest accommodation so that our guests can make full use of these facilities. Many of our guests wanted to enjoy village life for a longer period. “Make it so” we said! Our village offers guests a slice of village life including accommodating pub where you will be welcomed, a village shop, a peaceful lifestyle, a smile in the street, and all a stones throw from Bath with all its attractions. Guests who have enjoyed Trimnells House and gardens the most have been families and other groups who seem to enjoy the peaceful walled gardens where children can play while adults can eat and drink. Another group has been Londoners, who seem to enjoy the contrast and leave with batteries recharged.
We can also offer room only accommodation via various agencies or book direct via this website. This is mainly midweek and may be suitable for groups, families and contractors. Shared kitchen, lounge and dining room with other guests. Breakfast is available 4-8 miles away, or about 10 minutes drive.
The local pub offers food. Guests may be interested to use the local pub for Hen nights and other parties. It can be found here:-https://www.facebook.com/foxand.hounds.5?fref=ts

Film buffs and families who want to keep children entertained may want to visit nearby Castle Combe where scenes from Stardust, the first Dr Doolittle and Warhorse were filmed, and Lacock where scenes from Harry Potter and numerous costume dramas were filmed.
