A Guide to Bath

A Guide to Bath: Where to Eat, Shop, & Play

When I first decided to add Bath to our English Countryside agenda, I had no idea what to expect. I somehow felt obligated to spend one night there as a bit of a history lesson. Talk about being uninformed! I never expected such amazing modern restaurants—all focused on local ingredients—or such beautifully curated home shops and art galleries that could rival any major city.

After checking into our incredible hotel, we set out on foot and managed to see the entire city on our way to have a Sunday roast at the most charming little gastropub that looked like it belonged in The Holiday. Whether you have one day or several days, scroll down for my guide to Bath.

    The colors and composition of your photos are always so dazzling, it hardly matters where you go, but of course when the place is as charming as Bath, it does add a whole other dimension. I love those crescents…they remind me of “Who Will Buy” from Oliver!
