Summary:
This special home is in the heart of Montpelier with central Bristol just 15 mins walk away. The property can accommodate up to 6, featuring a double room, a twin room and double in the mezzanine.
The house is located in a gated community, so very peaceful but also has lively Stokes Croft on your doorstep, for the best of both worlds. The area has so much to offer such as Bristol's best cafe, the Bristolian, Oowee, a vegan takeaway and Bianchi's, all of which are favourites of mine.

The Neighborhood:
Montpelier is an area just north of Bristol’s city centre that is well known for its bohemian vibe. In fact, in February 2018, it was named the hippest area in the UK.
It is a wonderful area to visit in Bristol, and it has its own distinct feel with its beautiful terraced houses, many of which are painted in pastel colours. As such, Montpelier is a decidedly cool residential area that is a popular choice when it comes to choosing a location to visit in Bristol.
Shops
There are a few good shops in Montpelier, most of which are on Picton Street. These include Radford Mill Farm Shop, which has been operating for decades. It specialises in whole foods and organic vegetables, and it’s a great place to shop for all your local, ethically sourced foods.
C & T Licata & Son is an Italian deli that has also been around for many years. It is located on Picton Street, and good food and wine are sold in the delicatessen.
There is also a Tesco Express in Montpelier and a small high street near the end of Picton Street where you will find a convenience store and a few other small shops. For larger shops, central Bristol is only minutes away.
Cafes + Restaurants
Cafes, bars and restaurants are where Montpelier comes into its own. There are plenty to choose from, most of which are independently run.
The Bristolian Café is one of the most well-known cafes in the area. This is located at the top of Picton Street, and it is a great choice for grabbing a bite to eat at any time of the day. It is also known for its excellent brunches.
The Old England is one of the most popular pubs in Montpelier. Gigs are held here most weeks, and there is an upstairs games room complete with a couple of pool tables. There is also a pleasant beer terrace that is popular in the summer. This is apparently the only pub to have full-sized cricket practice nets on its grounds. Amazingly, these were originally put up for W. G. Grace, who used to practice here at the weekends.
Café Kino is right in the bottom corner of Montpelier on Stokes Croft. This popular vegan cafe sells a wide range of delicious local and organic food as well as tea and coffee. It also stocks a range of local beers, ciders and wines.
Getting Around:
Montpelier is located just north of Bristol city centre, making it very easy to travel to the centre by bus, bike or car. Montpelier has its own railway station on the northern border just off Cromwell Road, making commuting outside of the city easy.
Montpelier also enjoys easy access to the M32 and the A38, so you can get in and out of the city quickly.
