Beauty spots in Bath

The ancient city of Bath in Britain’s West Country is a beautiful place for a break. The natural thermal baths here gave this city its name and represent a rich Roman history that’s waiting to be explored.

You’re sure to fall in love with this idyllic location, and will no doubt want to claim one of the honey-coloured Cotswold stone buildings for your own.

Embark on a combined holiday to Bath and Bristol, and discover two new cities one easy trip.

Walking tours in Winchester

Allow yourself to be whisked away on a tour of the aesthetic architecture in Winchester. This wonderful city provides a brilliant location for a gentle walking holiday, with opportunities to visit the medieval Cathedral and Great Hall.

The countryside backdrop of this intriguing destination also offers the perfect place to take an afternoon jaunt. Plus, we stop at neighbouring Salisbury, making the most of our southern setting.

Meander through Malvern

Of course, it’s not all about metropolitan life! Nature truly shines on our glorious Malvern and Worcester break, set amongst some of the country’s most spectacular scenery.
