A short walk away alongside the river at Avoncliffe. Wonderful old pub with the Kennet and Avon canal flying overhead on an amazing aqueduct. With its own tiny railway station.

Fascinating place and very close to Abbotsleigh Cottage, on the way into Bath at Claverton. If you like textiles and gardens with a stunning view and a cafe then don't miss this one.

Historic world-renowned, this is an amazing sight. It is however quite expensive and you shepherded around at a distance. The museum there is very good though. Alternatively, Avebury with its ancient stone circle, museum and manor house in the heart of the Avebury World Heritage Site is well worth a visit.
