Bed and Breakfast Description
|
|
Built in 1867, The House is situated in the very centre of Bath, close to Queen Square and at the edge of Royal Victoria Park. A short stroll up Marlborough Lane will lead you to the gates of this lovely park, where Royal Avenue presents a panoramic view of the gracefully imposing Royal Crescent, a fine example of Georgian architecture. Only a few steps further will bring you to Baths' famous Circus and the centre of historic Bath, altogether a 5 minute walk from here.

Local Attractions

Bath is a small, but cosmopolitan and lovely city. With its architectural integrity and the golden hue of its stone, it is like a jewel set within the verdant rolling hills of the West County's pastoral landscape. Bath, with it's mineral hot springs, renowned for over two millennia, is the ancient urban centre of an archeologically rich historical setting that stretches back to the Roman era and beyond. As such, it is the perfect base from which to explore other nearby historical sites, all within 45 minutes of Marlborough House: Stonehenge, Wells, Glastonbury, Lacock, Castle Combe, Cheddar Gorge, or Longleat, the spectacular home of the Marquis of Bath.
Charles and Laura are happy to offer guidance for the best routes and itineraries to explore Bath and the surrounding area, or for suggestions on the array of the city's fine restaurants. Charles has a wealth of knowledge about musical events in the area and Laura is always pleased to offer advice on antique shopping in this antique hunter's mecca. |

B&B Location
|
From the M4, take the Bath exit Junction 18 (A46 to Bath), winding through the green hills surrounding Bath. From the A46, take the Bath exit, through the big roundabout and on the the A4 (London Road), where you must stay despite all efforts to draw you around the outskirts. You will be driving along with the other traffic until you come to a large traffic lit intersection.
This is where all signs point to the city centre on your left. They are a trick! Here you must be in the right lane so you can keep straight on the road into Bath, right through Bath (staying on the A4) as if you were heading toward Bristol (A4) and you will drive through our small uptown district, around three sides of Queens Square and out the other side, turning left onto Charlotte Street, down to where it joins the Upper Bristol Road (the A4 again).
You will be passing a string of unremarkable B&Bs on your right, but we are the first turn right (Marlborough Lane) on the Upper Bristol Road, just past the pedestrian lights, with a Vauxhall dealer on your left. Turn right there and then immediately into our driveway.
