Bath is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, full of gorgeous architecture and fascinating history. The city is home to many thousands of students as well as artists, writers and musicians.

Bath rightly boasts of being the best-planned town in England. Bath was founded by the Romans who discovered here the only true hot springs in the country of England. Bath's fashionable period coincided with one of Britain's most creative architectural eras, producing a delightful urban atmosphere complete with stylish buildings which have been lovingly maintained. The town contains many gardens and parks with the surrounding green hills providing beautiful views.

Bath is home to approximately 5,000 buildings ‘listed’ for their architectural merit and an exceptional number of museums including the Jane Austen Centre, a tribute to Bath’s most famous resident. Bath Abbey, which stands at the city centre, is one of the last great medieval churches of England.
