Unusual, eclectic and spacious The Dressmakers Salon is a 3 bedroom apartment on the first floor of The Old Schoolhouse, a Gothic Victorian Villa just less than 15 minutes walk from the centre of Bath. With one twin bedroom, one double bedroom and a quirky single bedroom off the lounge, this apartment is an amazing maze of rooms. You also have a compact, kitchen, full bathroom with shower over tub, cloakroom, and sitting room with dining area. This is a character-filled building and is not the "perfect boutique hotel" so many guests desire nowadays. It may not be your cup of tea, but if you enjoy the unusual and the quirky, this is the right place for you. The Dressmakers Salon occupies most of the first floor of this gothic Victorian villa situated on the lower slopes of the Wells Road close to the River Avon and the South entrance into the centre of Bath. Set back from the road, behind an iron gate, this gothic wonder was once a Victorian Schoolhouse. Its owners have lovingly rearranged it into five uniquely decorated apartments.
