About this property

Iconic 6BR eco-stay townhouse | Historic, central Bristol Old City | Sleeps 6–12

Duel of Bristol House is a stunning Grade II listed 6 bedroom townhouse in the heart of the Old City, steps from the Registry Office, Bristol Beacon and the Hippodrome. Sleeps 12 in 5 superkings (convertible to singles) and a twin (bunks). In Banksy's heartland, it features Conor Harrington's iconic “Duel of Bristol” mural. No on-site parking, but many car parks 3–8 mins away. Temple Meads Station is a 15min walk / 8min taxi ride. Historic, central, and perfect for group stays for work or play.

The space
Duel of Bristol House offers six spacious bedrooms, including five generously sized super king double rooms (which can be configured as singles) and a twin room with a bunk bed, arranged across the ground and first floors. Each double room features a dedicated workspace and access to superfast broadband, perfect for work or relaxation.

At the top of the house, you'll find a stunning open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area, comfortably seating up to 12 guests — ideal for groups. The property also includes three toilets and two showers for your convenience.

The whole property is yours for your booking except the basement and rear linen room.

There's a tiny courtyard in the middle of the building that has a bike shelter should you wish to bring your bike.

For added comfort and sustainability, the house is heated by newly installed air source heat pumps, ensuring your stay is both eco-friendly and centrally located.

Guest access
The whole house (except the linen room and cellar) is available to guests as a home-from-home for your city break through to your work stay. Workspaces are provided in every room and a full kitchen, two shower rooms, three toilets. Duel-of-Bristol House is in the heart of Bristol's Old City, next to the last remaining parts of the city wall.

Other things to note
Duel of Bristol House is a Grade II listed Georgian gem — her exterior steeped in history (the street is often used for filming thanks to its striking period charm), yet inside she’s been thoughtfully modernised for 21st-century comfort. One of the few places to stay in the area powered by air source heat pumps, she offers a warm and environmentally conscious welcome all year round.

She’s full of character and quirks, and if you treat her kindly, she’ll reward you with a memorable stay.

Nestled in the heart of Bristol’s Old City, right beside the last remnants of the medieval city walls, she’s surrounded by a colourful tapestry of city life. From artisan coffee shops and creperies (one featured in Doctor Who) to boutique hotels and buzzing bars, the street hums with the energy of locals and travellers alike.

You’ll fall asleep and wake to the rhythms of a neighbourhood that doesn’t just whisper history — it lives it.

About the host

Hosted by Jaya Chakrabarti

Host profile image
My husband and I fell into hosting accidentally when we were trying to buy a home with an annexe that could allow us to take care of our elderly parents. Sadly they got too frail for us to have them live with us so we started hosting to help cover care costs. We managed to keep hold of our first home, and began hosting with it after learning the ropes with our annexe.

Our day jobs are actually running a social enterprise, tackling modern slavery and labour exploitation in supply chains (try saying that really fast!) but following the pandemic, the costs for our offices got too high to keep using them. Enter plan B: we transformed our tiny offices into a huge 6 bedroomed city centre home-from-home. We've poured our hearts and souls into making it as comfy and as eco-friendly as our budget could allow. Duel House is a work in progress but we hope you'll immediately see how unique and characterful she is.

Why they chose this property

Bristol's Old City is filled with charm, and Broad Street itself is often used in filming. Most recently we had Young Sherlock, but we've also had Christine Keeler through to Alex Ryder and Doctor Who gracing our fair and lovely corner of what is left of the Old Quarter. It has a walkscore of 100 (according to their site!) so everything you need is within walking distance.

What makes this property unique

Duel of Bristol House is a stunning Grade II listed 6-bedroom Georgian townhouse in the heart of Bristol’s historic Old City — steps from the Registry Office, Bristol Beacon, and the Hippodrome. Named after the iconic Conor Harrington mural on its façade, this unique home sleeps 12 across five super king rooms (convertible to singles) and one twin bunk room.

Inside, each double bedroom features a dedicated workspace and superfast broadband, ideal for work or relaxation. At the top of the house, a spacious open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area comfortably seats 12 — perfect for retreats, reunions, or group getaways. The house includes three toilets and two showers to ensure comfort for all guests.

No on-site parking, but multiple car parks are 3–8 minutes’ walk. Temple Meads Station is 15 minutes away on foot or 8 minutes by taxi.

Duel of Bristol House is family-run — we’re Bristaliens (not born here, but very much at home), and our kids are born-and-bred Bristolians. We’re not a hotel, and definitely not a multinational. When you book with us, your money stays in Bristol — helping to support our family and fund our social enterprise, TISCreport.org, which works to tackle modern slavery and promote corporate transparency.

The house itself blends historic charm with eco-conscious living. Her Georgian exterior — frequently used in film and TV — houses a modern interior warmed by air source heat pumps for a more sustainable stay. You’ll also have access to a private internal courtyard with a covered bike shelter.

You’ll fall asleep and wake to the rhythms of a neighbourhood that doesn’t just whisper history — it lives it. Stay with us, and be part of Bristol’s story.
