Woolley Grange offers the opportunity to live and work amongst classic English countryside, whilst still being walking distance to Bradford upon-Avon with its array of shops, restaurants, and bars, and only a short train journey to the stunning city of Bath. It is the perfect base from which to explore the West Country, from its hundreds of Cider Mills to the world-famous Glastonbury Festival. Our guests have plenty of children's activities and acres of grounds to be explored. Bedrooms at Woolley Grange are individually designed and have plenty of space and contemporary comforts.
