Vacation Rentals in Bath

Already popular during the Roman occupation due to its thermal springs, Bath still offers a wide range of holiday accommodation in all price ranges. You can choose to move into one apartment for two on the picturesque banks of the Avon, a cosy holiday apartment in the centre or a holiday home near the centre. The central location also promises you short distances to the numerous historical sights of the university city, whose idyllic alleys are still characterized by the Georgian style. Especially recommendable are the modern accommodations near the Bath Abbey as well as near the Roman bathing complex.

For those who want to pitch their tents away from the busy city centre, a holiday home on the outskirts of the city is the ideal choice. As in many places in western England, peripheral districts such as Odd Down, Twerton, Charlcombe or Bathampton flow smoothly into the lush green landscape of the county of Somerset, so that families, nature lovers and active holidaymakers in particular feel at home. If you want to enjoy a holiday experience of a very special kind, you also have the opportunity to rent one of the lovingly restored English country houses, which usually even have a large garden.

The history of the city, which has left numerous traces in Bath in the form of buildings worth seeing from two millennia, dates back to the year 43 AD, when the Romans occupied today's England. Explore history on the Roman Baths, the Royal Baths, the History Museum with its countless art treasures and the world-famous Pulteney Bridge from the 18th century. The highlight is of course a visit to the abbey church of Bath Abbey, the city's landmark.

The university town in the heart of Somerset invites you to numerous outdoor activities. The extensive offer ranges from bike tours along the tranquil Kennet & Avon Canal and extensive hikes on the panoramic "Bath Skyline Walk" and "Colliers Way" to adrenaline-charged laps on the nearby go-kart track. If you prefer to be on the water, you can rent a canoe and enjoy the peace and quiet along the floodplains from the water.

The warming Gulf Stream ensures that Bath is significantly warmer year-round than anywhere else on the same latitude. Consequently, the holiday season begins in May, especially for culture lovers and active holidaymakers. However, the starting signal for the main travel season is not given until June, when up to seven hours of sunshine per day are expected. However, you should always expect rain during your stay during the high season between June and September and have the appropriate clothing with you.

The varied programme of events in Bath already begins with the Bath Bach Festival in February, when the lovely sounds of classical music light up the dark winter days. We continue with the Bath Half Marathon in March, the Bath Comedy Festival in April and the big cultural festival in May. Culture lovers can also look forward to the Fringe Festival in June, the Jane Austin Festival in September and the Bath Mozart Festival in November.
