Description
This idyllic corner of England is surely one of the most picturesque, famous for its charming honey-coloured villages with rose covered cottages and historic market towns, set against a backdrop of lush rolling countryside. Look forward to feasting your eyes on outstanding scenery as we drink in our surroundings by both road and rail. We also take a stroll through the centuries in beautiful Bath where eye-catching landmarks reside around every corner.
