Bath

Experiences

• Visit serene 15th-century Bath Abbey, which has more than 50 stained-glass windows. It was built in late-Gothic style.
• Roman patricians bathed at the Roman Baths and Pump Room, now the site of a museum. You can still taste the slightly noxious mineral water in the Pump Room, as the fashionable set did in the 18th century.
• Do as the Romans did and take a dip in natural hot springs at the very modern Thermae Bath Spa.
• Number 1 Royal Crescent is a Palladian row of houses that is often used as a film location today. This house offers a peek at the interiors, in the form of a museum.

Festivals

• The Bath International Music Festival spans many genres and draws artists and audiences from all over the world. It runs from late May to early June.
• The Jane Austen Festival in September celebrates the writer with film, plays, talks, and a costume parade.
