I went to Bath for a dear friend’s wedding. What a beautiful town! This is a photo loaded post.
I don’t have an awful lot to say. The photos are self explanatory. Fabulous town for architectural photography and the accommodation price was so much more reasonable than London .
Below were photos taken in Cafe au Lait.
It was opposite the train station, 2 min walk from the bus station. Fabulous stop for before heading back to London / Stonehedge etc. Reasonably priced, friendly service and had free wifi & plugs.
BONUS!!! They offered luggage storage as well!!! (not free, but VERY convenient)
Below were photos taken in Aqua. I don’t recommend this restaurant. They were incapable of cooking pork chop correctly (?!?!). Pork chop is one of the most forgiving piece of meat out there and they managed to mess that up into a dry, blend and hard piece of gunk. The chef was in denial too. Needless to say, I did not think they deserved to be paid for that dish. **below photos do not include that horrible pork dish (yuck)
I ate 2 bite from my pork dish; almost lost my jaw. I spent the rest of dinner drowning my sorrow with wine (very happy to do).
I highly recommend sampling pastries in town. The below was from Pasty Presto. My word, their pies and cakes were good. Fabulous to just chill, surf the internet, read or blog. They had large benches upstairs. It was just cosy and pleasant.
Snaps from the wedding. My friend tided the knots inside the Roman Bath. This was a 8h00 (morning) wedding by the way. The guests had to ADORE the couple to pitch up. I literately landed in Heathrow 12 hours before the wedding. It was really just a weekend of pure friendship. *I LOVE attending weddings.
How to get here?
London – Bath
By bus – approximately 3 hours from London Victoria station. Buy in 2 weeks advance and you get get returned bus tickets for under £15!!
I used: http://www.nationalexpress.com/home.aspx
Can also use the train – around 1.5 hours from London Paddington station around £30 for return tickets. I haven’t bought train tickets online before, if anyone knows of a good site, please let me know and I’d add it to this post. Thanks.
Again, this is a personal experience sharing post. I don’t gain any economical benefit from any clicks to the links.
