Bath is undoubtedly a great place to visit no matter whether you are going for a day or for a weekend.  And of course if you are staying in Bath or the Cotswolds for a week you could quite easily visit from there as well.  It is only an hour and forty minutes or so from Chipping Norton, and just an hour and ten minutes from Cheltenham along the M5.

The only ‘problem’ with Bath, if you could call it that, is that there is so much to see and do you could get quite worn out spending your UK weekend break wandering around trying to see everything!  And that calls for a relaxing pit stop somewhere to refresh yourself a bit.

So with that in mind, here are a few suggestions for places to do just that.

The John Rennie

If you are travelling to Bath with friends and family and you want to make the occasion extra special, try pre-booking the John Rennie.  This is actually a floating restaurant moored at Sydney Wharf.  It can cater for parties of just ten or more, so why not consider this if you fancy booking something very different in advance?

The Pump Room Restaurant

If you have enjoyed wandering around the Roman Baths then there is no better place to go afterwards than the Pump Room Restaurant.  It is just next door and it serves cream teas and many other snacks during the day.  This really is one of the finest restaurants you could try in Bath, and you should

definitely make room for a cream tea here during your Bath holiday.

The Belvedere Wine Vaults

Now doesn’t that sound appealing?  These vaults are located to the north of Bath, outside of the main town centre itself.  It’s a fairly straight route out though, and worth the trip.  It should take about ten minutes as it is a direct route on foot.

If you like seafood then the Belvedere Wine Vaults will keep you happily amused in their dining room.  As the name would suggest there are plenty of fine wines here too, and you can also order a refreshing beer in their bar.  It is perfect for a lunch time stop or an evening meal.

Le Parisien and Café Rene

You need to head to Milsom Place to find this little gem.  This is a four minute walk directly north of the Roman Baths.  Once you are seated and enjoying a bite to eat, you would almost forget you are in Bath and assume you are in Paris instead!

There are plenty of baguettes on offer, and with delights such as Provencale quiche and Mussels Mariniere as well, you might have trouble deciding what you fancy the most!

So there we are – some tasty suggestions for locations to grab a bite to eat in Bath.  There are plenty more places too of course, but we have picked these to show you that there are some unusual choices out there alongside the more mainstream ones.
