Location

St. Mary's House is situated in an elevated position overlooking the valley in the highly desirable rural village of Upper Swainswick, on the northern outskirts of Bath.

The village has a historic church, which doubles as a well attended village pub once a month. There is a highly regarded primary school and it is a renowned area for walking and other country pursuits.

The property nestles on the edge of the village. Given the very close proximity to the city (approximately 2.6 miles) the property is also particularly well placed for easy access to the nearby well performing schools in Bath. It is also conveniently placed for easy access to London by road, with the M4 motorway junction 18 approximately 8 miles away, as well as the city of Bristol.

Other amenities nearby include the shops and conveniences in Larkhall village. The city centre offers an excellent selection of restaurants and cafes along with The Theatre Royal, Thermae Spa, Sports Centre and Bath Spa Station which gives you direct access to London Paddington (from 75 mins) Bristol and South Wales.
