Bath Abbey

Bath Abbey is airy and delicate while also being impressive.

Assembly Rooms

The Assembly Rooms took me back to the novels of Jane Austen, among others.

We found the presentation of the baths very well done, with a nice mix of the rebuilt (to see how things might have been) the actual (to see them now) and the interpreted (to explain what you’re seeing). There were audio and visual guides, with different tracks to follow.

To me Bath is about two things: the roman baths, and Jane Austen. Check. We also made a side trip to Glastonbury. We spent two nights here. Three would feel less rushed for what we did.
