Bath

Bath is the largest city in the ceremonial county of Somerset, England, known for its Roman-built baths and has been a world heritage site since 1987. When walking the streets you will see an architectural history that dates back to Roman times through the centuries to the Georgian era when the city was subject to the grand plan of architect John Wood and beyond. It is probably one of the most attractive cities in the country to spend time in. There are the Pump Rooms where you can drink the water from the geothermal springs that bought the Romans to the area, and pours from the ground at a rate of over a million litres a day. Or you can bathe in them in the roof top pool of the new spa, surrounded by the impressive Georgian buildings. Bath was Britain’s centre of ‘fashionable life’ in the 18thcentury and the city reflects that in its parks and gardens and its long association with the arts.
