About the Business
With its striking architecture and sweeping Georgian terraces, Bath is considered to be one of the most elegant cities in Europe. It's a sprawling city with plenty of green spaces, but the centre itself is pretty compact and very easy to navigate on foot.
Bath has a speckled history - going from fashionable and thriving, to spiralling into decline, and back again! The Romans flocked to Bath for the hot springs and easily worked limestone, building a town that flourished for over 400 years - known as 'Aquae Sullis'. After they decamped, the city fell into disrepair until the eighteenth century when its natural assets were rediscovered and exploited (again)!
Throughout the Georgian period 1714 - 1830, Bath was a socialite's playground, becoming the focal point for out-of-London get-togethers. Royalty, the aristocracy and the 'commoners' of the day all bathed in the spa waters.
