The Duchy was built at the height of Bath’s previous Georgian heyday when the city was the pleasure resort for the rich and fashionable.
Some of the finest architectural sights in Europe are on the doorstep including Great Pulteney Street, Pulteney Bridge and the Kennet and Avon Canal.
Bath’s natural hot springs make it unique in England and no trip would be complete without a visit to the Roman Baths, bathing at the new Thermae Bath Spa, marveling at the historic Bath Abbey or afternoon tea at the splendid Pump Rooms.
Bath is a city of festivals and the arts and with such a compact city centre everything is in walking distance from The Duchy. From highbrow to eyebrow-raising, from family fun to adult comedy, there's something for all tastes.
The year-long programme of festivals and events in Bath includes everything from Shakespeare to Jane Austen and guitars to boules! The Bath Comedy Festival which commences on April Fool's Day was recently nominated as one of the 'very best' events in the world by the Sunday Times.
Bath is also home to the venerable Bath Rugby with the Rec only just round the corner from The Duchy.
