Kelston House, Kelston

Setting The Scene

Kelston is a charming and highly regarded village situated just four miles north-west of the World Heritage City of Bath. Characterised by predominantly period homes, the village is surrounded by unspoilt open countryside and rolling farmland, offering a wonderfully rural setting while remaining close to the city.

At its heart is the impressive Kelston Park, a historic manor estate, alongside the beautiful Church of St Nicholas, which dates back to the 13th century. Nearby, the award-winning Bath Soft Cheese Company at Park Farm offers a café and cheese shop, adding to the area’s appeal. The village enjoys a vibrant and active community.

Kelston Round Hill forms a distinctive skyline landmark, visible across the Avon Valley between Bath and Bristol. The village lies within a designated Conservation Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, ensuring the surrounding landscape is protected and preserved.

Despite its tranquil rural atmosphere, Kelston benefits from excellent accessibility. Bath provides a comprehensive range of amenities, including outstanding restaurants, cultural attractions and the Theatre Royal. Bath’s mainline railway station also offers direct services to London Paddington in approximately 90 minutes.
