描述
During this Full Day Private Chauffeured Experience you will visit Bath and your choice of Cotswolds village.
Bath
Enjoy a scenic tour of the historic city of Bath, originally built as a place of well-being and relaxation by the Romans over 2,000 years ago. Home to the country’s only natural thermal hot springs, Bath is a delightful city where the ancient world is intertwined with threads of medieval and more recent Georgian history. Our scenic tour of Bath provides an excellent introduction to the major sights of this beautiful city, including Pulteney Bridge, The Assembly Rooms and Bath Abbey.
Afterwards, you will visit the famous Roman Baths, home to Britain’s only natural thermal hot springs. The Roman Baths themselves are below the modern street level. There are four main features: the Sacred Spring, the Roman Temple, the Roman Bath House and the museum, holding finds from Roman Bath. The buildings above street level date from the 19th century.
Choose one of the following villages to add to your Bath Tour
Option 1 - Lacock
Lacock, just four miles south of Chippenham, is probably the most beautifully preserved village in the Cotswolds. Meander along this quintessential English village where little has changed in 200 years with streets lined with timber-framed houses and independent shops. Lookout for the 14th-century tithe barn in Lacock village once used by the nuns of Lacock to store grain. Built with blocks of limestone rubble supporting a cruck-framed roof.
Lacock village is widely used in medieval and fantasy dramas such as Harry Potter, film and television productions such as Downton Abbey. These Wiltshire village’s timber-framed houses provide that authentic street scene.
Option 2 - Castle Combe village, Cotswolds
One of the many pretty villages in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Castle Combe offers plenty of picturesque walks and charming streets waiting to be explored! Taking it’s name from the 12th century castle which stood about 500m to the north, the word combe is an old English word for a short valley or hollow on a hillside or coastline. Hardly changing in 500 years this is your typical chocolate box village.
The village has a rich history and the houses are made up of the typical honey coloured Cotswold stone. Dating back to 13th century you will find a Market Cross and St Andrew’s Church within this village. Spot the faceless clock which is believed to be one of the oldest working clocks in the country.
Castle Combe has also featured regularly as a film location, for The Wolf Man, Stardust and Stephen Spielberg’s War Horse. It was also used in the original Dr Doolittle film.
Wander along the village to the bridge and enjoy the beautiful views!
