Bath Revisited

It's been almost a year since my last visit to Bath, in the South-West of England. I wrote about my earlier visit on my blog and it can be found here.

A year on and my return to bath coincided with another one night stopover in nearby Bristol. This was the half way point for us as we headed back to Cornwall for another family holiday. Not being at all familiar with Bristol, it was an obvious move to spend a few hours in Bath once again, especially after an enjoyable visit in 2009, but once again the sun wasn't shining. Oh well, you can't have it all I suppose.

We dropped anchor in the Waitrose multi-storey car park and made our way towards Bath Abbey and the nearby York Street. The area was busy, as expected, even though it was a mid-week late afternoon. For a short while we sat near the Abbey, where a busker played acoustic guitar. Later, we headed up towards The Circus and Royal Crescent. It was a lot quieter there, which was unexpected as both locations are often considered to be the more popular tourist attractions of the City. It was back along Brock Street towards The Circus, passing Margaret's Buildings on the way (see image below).

A bite to eat and it was time to head off towards our hotel near Bristol. Once again our visit to Bath more then worthwhile and it probably won't be our last. A lovely place.
