If you are staying in or near Bath then you will know that there are plenty of places you can visit in the city of Bath itself. But if you are planning on being there for a week or more on your UK holiday then you might want to venture a bit further afield.
And you might be surprised at how many places are within easy reach of Bath itself. All of the following places are less than an hour away from Bath by car at the very most - so have a read through and decide where you would like to head to.
Visit Stonehenge
Some people are surprised to learn that Stonehenge is only an hour from Bath. The A36 is the quickest route, taking the road south out of the city and then taking the B390. This comes out to the A360 and you should turn left into Shrewton.
This stone circle is world famous and there is nothing better than visiting it to see it up close.
Visit Avebury
About 23 miles north of Stonehenge there is another stone circle worth visiting. This is in Avebury, which is out to the east of Bath itself. Follow the A4 north east until you reach the A365, then link up with the A3102. This takes you back onto the A4 and you can then be at Avebury within 55 minutes of leaving Bath itself.
Visit Bristol
From one city to another, why not head for Bristol for the day? There is a lot to see and do here and the A4 leads you in a north westerly direction right up to the city itself. The total journey should only take around half an hour.
And once you are there, you've got attractions that include Bristol Zoo Gardens, the Clifton Suspension Bridge and the SS Great Britain by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. So there is no shortage of things for the whole family to do here.
Visit Bradford on Avon
Just 17 minutes from Bath is Bradford on Avon. This is not to be missed as it is very picturesque and has plenty of quirky buildings and sights to appreciate.
You should head out on the A4 and then link up with the A46. The A363 south will then take you right into Bradford on Avon.
Not only can you enjoy the many shops and restaurants in the middle of Bradford on Avon, you can also enjoy nice views over the River Avon itself. The river runs through the central part of the town, and many people enjoy a relaxing day close by when they are on holiday, or perhaps enjoying a short weekend break.
So here we have four great ideas for days out from your base in Bath. Regardless of whether you have Bath self catering accommodation or a hotel in the area, it's good to know there are lots of other places to visit close by. Why not make some plans now?
