Bath named best autumn weekend getaway in the UK

Bath has officially been crowned the UK’s top destination for an autumn weekend break, according to a recent Premier Inn study.

Bath has officially been crowned the UK’s top destination for an autumn weekend break, according to a recent Premier Inn study. This charming city, known for its Georgian architecture and rich Roman history, becomes even more magical in autumn, making it the perfect cozy retreat.

Bath’s UNESCO World Heritage status and picturesque setting drew the attention of the study’s participants, who spent more time admiring its images than any other UK destination. 

With the city bathed in the warm reds, oranges, and yellows of the season, it offers visitors stunning scenic walks through spots like Royal Victoria Park and the Bath Skyline.

Autumn is also a great time to explore Bath’s iconic landmarks, such as the Pulteney Bridge, which looks particularly beautiful surrounded by seasonal foliage. 

The Roman Baths, with steam rising from the hot springs on crisp days, provide an atmospheric touch of history. You can even swim in the natural springs at The Gainsborough Bath Spa.  

And, if you like a bit of live music, Bath’s Green Park Brasserie has you covered. 

Beyond the beauty of its outdoor spaces, Bath offers a rich cultural scene. From visiting Bath Abbey and the Holburne Museum to attending the city’s famous literature festivals, there’s something for everyone. The Bath Children’s Literature Festival, Europe’s largest, draws book lovers from across the country, making autumn an exciting time to visit.

Whether you’re strolling through the city’s historic streets or soaking in the rich culture, Bath in autumn is the ultimate destination for a relaxing weekend escape.
