History
Homewood is a Georgian country house on Abbey Lane in Freshford, about six miles from Bath (some sources describe its later remodelling in the Victorian era). It had operated as a hotel for some decades before Ian and Christa Taylor's Kaleidoscope Collection bought it in 2018 and relaunched it in 2020 after a bold, colourful transformation.
The 31-room house - 21 main-house rooms plus 10 in the Mallingford Mews - is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World member, known for quirky art (a yellow submarine on the lawn, a wall of clocks), the restaurant Olio, a spa with hydrotherapy pools and dining domes.
