Top choice in Bristol

Welcome to urban glamping – three vintage Airstream trailers sit in a bijou AstroTurf roof garden slap bang in the heart of Bristol. They're predictably tiny (ranging from 16ft to 20ft) but still have sleek seating areas, pocket-sized bathrooms and rooftop views. Guesthouse bedrooms are compact but smart, featuring soft tones and checked throws.

Breakfast is served in the airy lounge, treats include eggs Benedict and eggs Florentine. Discounted parking is available for £16 a day at the nearby Queen Charlotte St car park.
