The choice in Bristol is mixed. Small one-bedroom cabins for two sit alongside family houses and a few very large properties for groups. The cheapest night found is 80, but that kind of stay is the exception, and the usual night is well above it. Winter weeks cost noticeably more than weeks outside winter, which is the reverse of what many people assume. If you are travelling as a couple, look at the smaller places first, because the gap between those and the big houses is wide.

Bristol is a city rather than a typical lodge destination, and that shapes the stays on offer. Many places here sit on the edge of town or in the countryside nearby, so you can combine a quiet evening in a hot tub with a day in the city's harbourside and its markets. Most of the stock is built for couples and small groups, with a smaller number of very large houses for parties.
Prices are on the high side for a short break. A usual night costs more than you might expect for a lodge, and the larger places push the typical figure up a lot. Cheaper stays exist, mostly small cabins for two or three people, and some of them take dogs. Hot tubs are common, found at around seven in ten places, while log burners are less usual, at about three in ten. Guests rate the places well, at 8.7 out of 10, and the average place sleeps 7, though the largest takes 34.
The one dedicated selection covers dog friendly lodges and cabins, with 15 places in total. That is a little under half of everything in Bristol, so travelling with a dog does not narrow your options by much. Some larger houses take pets on request rather than as standard, so check the terms with the owner before you book, particularly if you have more than one dog.
Gardens are the most common feature, at about three quarters of places, followed closely by hot tubs. Log burners appear at around a third. Features such as a swimming pool or a private pool are rare, at about one place in ten, and they are mostly found on the large, dearer houses. Places with a hot tub usually cost more than places with a garden or a log burner alone, so a hot tub is the feature that moves the price most. If budget matters, a log burner gives you a warm evening for less.
| Feature | Places | Share | Usual night |
|---|---|---|---|
| Garden | 27 | 77% | £212 |
| Hot tub | 25 | 71% | £364 |
| Log burner / fireplace | 11 | 31% | £212 |
| High chair | 9 | 26% | £919 |
| BBQ | 8 | 23% | £762 |
| Fishing | 7 | 20% | £211 |
| Swimming pool | 3 | 9% | £811 |
| Private pool | 3 | 9% | £811 |
Most places sleep two, with one bedroom, and these are among the cheaper options per night. Places for three or four people cost about the same per night as those for two, so the cost per person drops by half, which makes them the best value for a small group or family. From seven guests upwards the nightly price jumps sharply, and the largest groups pay a lot per person. Houses for 12 to 14 are a little cheaper per person than those for 10 or 11.
| Sleeps | Places | Bedrooms | Usual night | Per guest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeps 2 | 12 | 1 | £155 | £78 |
| Sleeps 3-4 | 8 | 2 | £152 | £38 |
| Sleeps 7-9 | 4 | 4 | £637 | £80 |
| Sleeps 10-11 | 4 | 4 | £1,022 | £102 |
| Sleeps 12-14 | 3 | 5 | £919 | £77 |
Prices stay in a narrow band from November to April. January is the cheapest month, with the most availability. Spring is dearer, with March and April a little above the winter months. December and February sit in between. Availability is tightest in November and December, so if you want a stay close to Christmas, book earlier than you would for the new year.

| November 2026 | £211 | 46% |
| December 2026 | £216 | 48% |
| January 2027 | £200 | 64% |
| February 2027 | £218 | 59% |

Several nearby towns offer more choice or lower starting prices. Cheddar has the most places, at 30, and Bath follows with 21, with nightly prices starting lower than in Bristol itself. Wells has 12 places, Holcombe has 8, Chepstow has 7 and Blagdon has 5, so those are smaller selections. If Bristol is full for your dates, Bath and Cheddar are the most practical places to look next, as both are within reach of the city for a day out.
