The West Country / Somerset region
The Georgian City of Bath with stunning architecture and also Roman Baths is a World Heritage City and attracts visitors from all over the world.

London is just 90 minutes by train from Bath.
Bath / Bradford on Avon area
Bradford on Avon boasts not just picture perfect architecture but is also home to numerous boutiques and fabulous retaurants - if fact, this really is the centre of the independent retailer and produces a diversity not now found on the average high street. From a fine deli, to a well stocked cheese shop and a clothes shop called POISON, as well as antiques, flower and gift shops, there really is something for everyone.
Being situated on the River Avon and the Kennet and Avon Canal, there are boat trips and walks aplenty. The perfect excuse to slow down a little and enjoy a calmer pace of life, before heading back for a cup of tea at Clifton House.
