Bath and the surrounding countryside offer many varied activities such as golf, fishing, water sports, horseriding ,as well as diverse cycling and walking trails.

Golfers can choose from no less than ten local golf courses, ranging fron the Approach course within the Royal Victoria Park to the many challenging courses in the countryside beyond.

One fo the best ways to explore Bath and the historic countryside is by bicycle or on foot. Some routes of interest include the Bristol to Bath Railway path, the Avon Cycleway and the Kennet and Avon towpath.

No matter what the season, there's usually a festival somewhere in Bath and North East Somerset. A few of these include the Bath International Music festival, the SpringFlower Festival, Shakespeare Festival and the Fringe Theatre Festival, to name but a few!

The countryside which surrounds Bath has a rich history and intoxicating beauty. Dozens of conservation villages are to be found among the hills, rivers and valleys, such as idyllic Bradford on Avon and Cotswold villages such as historic Lacock and Castle Combe.

“Homely comfortable flat in a fantastic location” Booking was easy and a very helpful chap was there to meet us with the key when we arrived. The location is fantastic, with access from a pedestrian-only street up at the top of Bath right near to the famous Royal crescent. It is still within an easy walk from the main shopping areas and in fact we walked from the train station. The botanical gardens are a not far away and a good destination for an early morning jog if you are so inclined! It is a 2 bedroom flat with a double and a twin room - we were three friends sharing but it would do as well for a family with 2 children. The twin room is on the small side but was fine for our purposes and the beds were clean and comfortable. The kitchen was small but well-equipped and also very clean - we cooked there in the evenings. The living area was very homely and comfortable and we felt right at home - some rented flats can feel rather bare and impersonal but this one was quite the opposite. My least favourite thing about the flat was the bathroom. It was a nice large room and clean but could do with updating I would say and also a shower would be nice. So overall I can definitely recommend it. We are thinking of going back again next year.
