Definately worth a visit but be aware the entrance is at the top of a very steep hill with no car parking so take the bus or a taxi. However, when you have finished your walk round you are at the bottom of the hill and can take an easy canal and riverside walk back into the centre of Bath

The other two were Japanese so that gives you an idea of how magnificent these were. An absolute highlight of our trip to Bath and I recommend it to be at the top of anyone's itinerary who is visiting there. Magnificent! Cute outdoor tea rooms with spectacular views half way around the walk.

Definitely my favourite garden in Bath! There are two ways to get there: Bus or Feet. The bus is quick and easy. Per feet can become a case of sweating! Till you reach the entrance of the garden, you have to walk a looooooong, steeeeeeeep hill and I got blisters on my heels ;-) Second time I took the bus.... More

A lovely National Trust property. The view from the top has the 'wow' factor. The Palladian bridge is one of 4 in the world. We walked both ways from the City Centre, but there are buses including the Bath 'hop on-hop off' tour bus. A steep climb

This park outside Bath is well worth the walk. The view from the hills is amazing and the park is beautiful. Flowers, lakes, trees, live stock and competent guides. Have a cup of tea with home-made cookies from the small kiosk and just enjoy. You might take the bus and then walk the way back via the smaller streets.

We only live about ten minutes from the Gardens so I feel a bit of a fraud reviewing this. We don't have to walk a mile up the hill from the City before you start your visit. We are members of the National Trust so this is just one of our local walks. Why keep visiting this. There is nothing... More

Go there it's a little oasis in Bath! a stroll through the lovely grounds is a delight ....but on the downside you can't park your car there unless you are a blue badge holder , something I feel needs addressing as there is easily enough room to create a small car park.......but the sightseeing bus trip does allow you a...
