GoOutIn Bath Recommends

The Fashion Museum

A prime place for laughing at what your granny or mum might have called their 'pulling outfit'. The collection ranges from menswear, womenswear, shoes, coats and dresses, to corsets, swimwear, wedding dresses and underwear. The items range in age as well, the oldest being from 1600 and the Read more about The Fashion Museum

Holburne Museum of Art

GoOutIn was particularly drawn towards this museum because of its architecture and incredibly accessible location. As well as having been part of the set for the 2004 film Vanity Fair, the museum houses the 19th century art collection of Sir William Holburne, which includes works by Gaudi, Turner, Gai Read more about Holburne Museum of Art

Pulteney Bridge

Bearing in mind that any guidebook on Bath will unquestionably dedicate a considerable chunk of its content to Pulteney Bridge, writing about it seems a little bit superfluous. Nevertheless, it's still worth a mention. Pulteney bridge is an unspoiled example of Georgian architecture at its finest. B Read more about Pulteney Bridge

Avon Valley Cyclery

Bike hire for the active type of tourist. Bound only by your own energy, enthusiasm, and time constraints you can go anywhere when hiring a bike from these guys. Most people, though, tend to pootle up and down the canal. Save your energy and head straight to the really good pub a few miles down in B... Read more about Avon Valley Cyclery

Victoria Park & Botanical Gardens

Overlooked by the Royal Crescent and featuring botanical gardens, a play area, a duck pond, bandstand, putting green, a golf course, tennis courts, a skateboard park, some fine trees, and delightful bedding displays. Well worth wandering down to when the crowds in the city get a bit too much. Entert... Read more about Victoria Park & Botanical Gardens

Sally Lunn's Museum

Small museum situated beneath the tearooms. And when we say small we mean very small. Built in 1446, this is reputedly the oldest house in Bath, though we did get an e-mail from a guy telling us that this is all hot air and in fact there are older buildings on the same street. It is also home to the... Read more about Sally Lunn's Museum

Thermae Bath Spa

Finally, about six years late and loads of money over budget, Bath's thermal spa place is now open and is absolutely amazing. It is, apparently, the UK's only natural spa, which makes it pretty special. If that wasn't enough, the building housing the ancient waters is thoroughly state... Read more about Thermae Bath Spa

Mad Max Tours

This independent tour company gives excellent value for money on its tour of Stonehenge, Avebury Stone Circles, Wiltshire White Horses, Lacock National Trust Village, and Castle Combe. All are prime visitor attractions. The whole trip lasts nearly eight hours, so it's quite full on, but definitely w... Read more about Mad Max Tours

Ghost Walks of Bath

Ok, granted: Milsom Street and Pulteney Bridge aren't exactly Elm Street; but GoOutIn is convinced that you could still have a satisfactory nightmare on them if you really tried. There's something infinitely unnerving about the way in which familiarity suddenly becomes a foreign concept whe... Read more about Ghost Walks of Bath

Theatre Royal

Nestled neatly, among the city's plentiful assortment of restaurants and cafés, is the grandfather of all buildings in Bath: The Royal Theatre. It's one of the oldest buildings in the country and – if its old walls were able to speak – GoOutIn is convinced they would start ... Read more about Theatre Royal

Henrietta Park

Henrietta may not be the most popular or famous of the parks in Bath, but it certainly doesn't lack beauty and a fair portion of tranquillity. Just off Laura Place, it serves as a perfect spot for picnicking or a game of Frisbee. The slightly hidden water feature gives the park a hint of orien... Read more about Henrietta Park

Bristol Zoo

Founded in 1835, Bristol Zoo has more than one claim to fame. As well as displaying a photograph of John Cleese with a monkey on his shoulder on its website, it was awarded 'Zoo of the Year 2004' and is also the fifth oldest zoo in the world. Admission prices are a tad steep, but what else... Read more about Bristol Zoo
