When it comes to large group accommodation near Bath with a pool, La Belle Folly stands out from the crowd.

There’s large group accommodation near Bath with a pool, and there’s this. La Belle Folly is an absolute beauty of a holiday house that’s been lovingly transformed from a farm barn and grain tower to bring you a very special place to stay in a countryside setting on a private estate where llamas, pigs and goats live happily, on the border of Wiltshire and Somerset. Bath is just 12 miles away, and Frome with its upbeat street markets, is around 5.

The timber clad barn and dusty pink tower have 9 ensuite bedrooms to provide snooze space for 23 guests. 7 are in the barn, including a ginormous one that sleeps 7 and has 2 ensuite shower rooms, so great for a family, for friends sharing, or for older kids dormitory-style. The two bedrooms in the tower (one on the ground floor, one upstairs) have circular beds to match the round building, and ensuite shower rooms.

There’s a gorgeous living room to relax in, and for those mega celebration feasts, a well-equipped kitchen/dining room with a long table that seats all. Play pool and the arcade machine in the games room, up on the landing is a 12ft shuffleboard. Interiors are delicious, a fabulous blend of rustic and modern with plenty of exposed wood as a country style backdrop to colourful fabrics and vintage prints. We love it!

Love those days in the sun by whipping up a pizza or sizzling steaks in the outdoor cooking area just outside the door. Just around the corner there’s an all-weather lawn, a swimming pool and hot tub. But wait a minute. This is no ordinary pool and hot tub. Both are made of sleek and shiny stainless steel, both ends of the pool are all glass – just think of the Insta pics!

And the views. We haven’t told you about those yet. Picture this: floor to ceiling glass walls at the front of the barn and the tower give a far-reaching outlook over the fields and hills. You can see for miles – the kind of sight that makes you sigh in a nice way, an oh-that’s-heavenly way.

So, if there’s a large group stay in the planning and you haven’t found the perfect accommodation yet, take a closer look, because La Belle Folly is too good to miss out on. Pick your dates, check availability and book today!
