I cannot but feel that Bath could make more of these gardens. They do not have the wow factor that exists in so many of Bath's other great attractions. I am no gardener but I am sure that there are considerable improvements that could be made without breaking the budget. Still very nice to sit in and reflect

Victoria Park in Bath is another place that I spent many a happy time. The Botanical area is great, set aside from the Main Play Area, it is lovely. I can highly reccommend the whole area of the Royal Victoria Park, it is a large area, very safe for children. It ranges from very quiet areas to the more lively.

We were a bit early for many of the trees and flowers in full bloom, but this park/garden is so nicely laid out and huge! Very relaxing and beautiful.

If you feel like you had done enough in Bath, I recommend to find this place via The Circus and Royal Crescent. This place itself is not much but walking around this area is worthwhile to do.

Great for a stroll and get away from town, lovely for a picnic in summer, good for a stroll even in rain, some lovely trees and shrubs to see. Children love it too; duck pond and swings. Doesn't take too long to meander around and when I went they had a small photography exhibition on the grounds. You could spend... More

A great oasis to stroll and chill feed the ducks or enjoy the spring flowers, summer will be even more worthwhile.

What a beautiful and thoroughly enjoyable oasis of peace and beauty in the middle of a very average park without much character! In summer great for picnics with young children as no direct access to roads.

The botanical gardens are situated within Victoria Park and are a short walk from the Lower Bristol Road. You can visit the gardens at most times of the year but the trees and flowers are best seen during the spring and summer months. There is a tremendous range of trees, plants, and flowers and s stream and pond that contains... More
