Bath is a beautiful town. We love visiting, pottering around the shops, sitting in the parade gardens or outside the shops on a sunny day. Plenty of bookshops, cafes and theatre for not so sunny days. One of my favourite places to stay in England.

Open top bus tours with TootBus was a must and great value with a family ticket and can use as much as you like for 48 hours. Roman Baths also a brilliant visit. Easy place just to wander around and explore, loads of great restaurant and cafes.

"The Gainsborough Bath Spa Hotel…Spa Girl Heaven
As a spa girl, I had to come to Bath, and this hotel spoke to me. The spa is absolutely adorable, and my massage? 👩🍳💋 Pure perfection. The front desk was delightful, and our room was super cute.
Bath as a town winds down early (around 8 PM), so if I came back, I’d do it like this: spa in the morning, explore in the afternoon, spa again, dinner, then bed. Highly recommend for a blissful, relaxing getaway.

"A nice surprise, extremely clean. Bed was good, A/C in the room was great, good shower. Public parking 100 feet away. Great location (next to roman baths, walking distance from the Royal Crescent). I would definitely recommend it"
