Brindleys, Bath

The scenic Kennet & Avon Canal is yards away. You can follow the canal's towpath to Widcombe, or the other way to Sydney Gardens and the Holburne Museum.

Some of Bath's most famous landmarks, such as Pulteney Bridge and the Roman Baths, are around a 10-minute walk away.
By car: around 45 minutes from Bristol, 2 hours 30 minutes from London and 3 hours 30 minutes from Manchester. There is free parking on site.
By train: there are direct services to Bath Spa from Bristol Temple Meads (11 minutes), Cardiff Central (1 hour 5 minutes) and London Paddington (1 hour 15 minutes). The hotel is around a 10-minute walk from Bath Spa station. thetrainline.com

Couples looking for an upmarket bed and breakfast in a quiet spot, and are happy to have a little stroll to reach the centre of Bath will be very satisfied here. We love the light-filled and attractively decorated breakfast room, whose tables are laid out with blue-and-white gingham tablecloths and matching napkins.

Due to Bath's limited parking spaces, a great perk is the use of an on-street parking permit that is included in the rates.

We love the extras: robes and slippers, quality toiletries from a Bath-based company, Kit Kat chocolate bars on the tea tray. Our favourite room is Number 3, Brindleys' most luxurious room, which has a bay window, wing-back chairs, a chandelier and lovely big white-painted bed.
