Bath's Top 5 Most Beautiful Hidden Gems
A popular destination for weekend breaks, Bath is famous for its thermal bathes, cobbled streets and afternoon teas. England’s most charming city is the perfect place to enjoy quintessentially British experiences, but there are also lots of beautiful places concealed amongst the Georgian architecture in Bath. Here are five hidden gems not to be missed.
1. The Gainsborough Bath Spa
Spa Hotel, Hotel
In step with Bath’s spa tradition, this honey-stoned hotel, set in a twin set of Grade II-listed buildings, places wellness at its heart. Indeed, we can well imagine the Georgian gentry taking in the thermal spring, whose mineral-rich waters once healed aristocracy as they do hotel guests today. Sure, they might not have had massages on the menu (the signature sees you lathered in rosemary and pine essences), or West Country chef Dan Moon’s fine dining to look forward to, but the waters still stretch back to the source and the sense of place remains.
