Bath is a small city situated on the Avon River about 185 klms West of London. It is famous for its hot mineral springs which are reputed to have healing properties. We had planned to stay two nights at Bath which gave us plenty of time to look around. We checked out the spas dating back to Roman times and the Bath Abbey, but didn’t go for a dip in the healing waters (90 minute wait and 70 pound cost !!). However we did a Jane Austen walk around the town (the famous author lived in Bath and the city features in her books). It was good to have a relaxing day.
