TRAVEL INFO
@
writer’s tip
“
Bristol is a great
base fromwhich to
explore nearby Bath
where visitors can
relax and unwind
at the Thermae
Bath Spa. Using
the naturally warm,
mineral-rich waters
which the Celts and
Romans enjoyed
over 2,000 years
ago, Thermae Bath
Spa is Britain’s
original and only
natural thermal Spa.
