Pococks Lodgings has hosted guests to our Elizabethan townhouse since the C17th. On the doorstep of the Thermae Spa & a minute's walk from the Roman Baths, shops & restaurants, you can live like a local.

Said to date back to 1302, the rooms have original features such as Jacobean paneling & have recently been refurbished to a high standard incl. sound proofing between floors, though please note this is a busy neighbourhood in the city centre and external noise is guaranteed.

The space
Stay Above The Grapes – A Historic Bath Escape

Welcome to our unique Airbnb, nestled above The Grapes, one of Bath's oldest pubs, with roots dating back to 1792. Our home doesn’t fit neatly into a standard category—whether you’re a solo traveler or a group of six, you’ll be our only guests. You’ll have exclusive use of the top floor bedrooms and bathroom, with the flexibility to choose the rooms that suit your needs.

Your Private Guest Floor

The third floor is entirely yours, offering three comfortable bedrooms, a private bathroom, and a handy coffee station:

Bowdler: Two small double beds, a comfy sofa bed, and our cozy library.
Montagu: A king-size bed and the only surviving stone mullion window from the original Elizabethan house.
Herschel: A charming small double room next to the bathroom.

Shared Spaces with Character

You’re welcome to enjoy our historic Jacobean living room, complete with its rare lime plaster ceiling though please note this space hosts community events, life drawing classes and meetings, so do check with us about availability during your stay.

The kitchen is fully equipped if you’d like to cook, and of course, The Grapes downstairs is always ready to refresh you, as it has been for centuries.

A Living House

While you’ll have the top floor to yourselves, this is very much a shared house. We, the owners, live on-site, and from August, our managers—a friendly couple—will also reside on the floor below the guest accommodation.

Once a grand house said to have hosted the Prince of Orange and other notable guests, the building is steeped in history, and we love sharing it with those who appreciate its character and quirks.

Guest access
Access is through a private door separate to the pub and you will get your own key so you’re free to explore the city.

Other things to note
There’s plenty to discover just around the corner. The Theatre Royal offers a fantastic night out, while the Thermae Spa is perfect for a relaxing soak with stunning rooftop views.

If you're here for the weekend and fancy some late-night fun, Komedia is your go-to for clubbing and comedy. And for a cocktail to round off the evening, The Dark Horse—just down the road—has been named one of the 10 coolest bars in the world.

My work: Owner of The Grapes
Lives in Bath, United Kingdom
Business
After years of traveling with Airbnb, it's now my turn to host. My husband Jonny and I run a popular bar beneath our BnB in the heart of old Bath, lovingly restored to a high standard. Housed in one of Bath's oldest buildings—parts dating back to the early 14th century—our place has plenty of charm but also the occasional challenge, like outdoor noise. Best to check the reviews before booking!
