On our way south from the Midlands, we spent an afternoon in Bath. I'd never been and it seemed like a beautiful place, so why not?
Hi! :)
We went to the Royal Crescent first, of course, a must-see for any Jane Austen fan. :) And it was delightful to see it.
I took various touristy photos of Liam.
And then we continued our stroll through town ...
... and ended up at the Raven (a recommendation from Carro who was here recently).
It's a lovely pub with a its own library!
This photo is called "a Portrait of Liam Poking Things" and is part of a collection of many.
They had real ale AND they had something dark on, in summer! FABULOUS
This stout was fantastic.
Such a happy traveller! :)
Then we continued walking through town, looking at pretty buildings ...
... and signs. It was such a good day for a stroll like this, pleasant weather, not too hot, not crowded, just lovely.
Thirsty Meeples! Yet another perfect board game café name!
Thie bookstore, Topping & Company Booksellers was also on Carro's list of recommendations, and I soon realised why.
It's one of the prettiest bookstores I've ever seen. Here, have many photos of it:
I was very happy to just be in the atmosphere of all these books.
And then we walked along the River Avon for a bit.
The Pulteney Bridge. Very pretty!
Then it was already early evening and time to get going to get to our bed and breakfast in Upton.
This lovely place is called The Bittescombe Inn and is SUCH gem. I can't recommend it enough. Their restaurant is closed on Mondays though so we brought some takeaway salads from Bath to have for dinner instead.
Here's our room - I loved the colours.
We ended this fabulous day in bed with Grand Designs and Percy Pigs, quite knackered but very happy.
