Bubbly Bath
Sunday Times Travel magazine readers have recently voted Bath, the sixth best city in Europe according to the article “Bath – everyone’s favourite city!”.
The article states that not only has Bath been hailed one of Europe’s most beautiful cities, it’s Thermae Bath Spa has been voted the finest retreat in the UK and it’s Royal Crescent Hotel, the accolade of the UK’s best hotel.
A popular UK beauty spot that enjoys about 3.8 million daytrip visitors a year, the World heritage Centre of Bath is packed with beauty spots and culture. There is the 18th century Pulteney Bridge, the Roman Baths, the Victorian Art Gallery, a wealth of other galleries and museums, five theatres and is something of a festival city to boot. Throwing open its doors every year to events like the Bath Literature Festival, the Bath Beer Festival, the Mozartfest and many more, this is a city constantly on the go.
All this could go to your head. The Sunday Times Travel magazine pointed out that a stay in the Royal Crescent Hotel was “akin to spending the weekend with Mr Darcy”. But while wandering about the streets of Bath completely immersed in the world of Jane Austen, Neil Laird of Sainsbury Finance noted it was easy to be distracted from the serious business of travel insurance. He pointed out that the unfortunate events that can occur during a holiday overseas can happen during a domestic holiday too. So be prepared and don’t let it spoil a great trip!
