First there is The history of Bath stretched back a long way - certainly well into Pre-Roman times although it is from the Roman occupation of Britain that the Bath's first started to make their appearance as a well structured religious sanctuary to the Celtic Goddess Coventina who was later merged into the Roman religious pantheon as Minerva.
Bath is a delightful city and has much more to it's attractions than the Roman Bath's alone. There is the famous Abbey (near to the Bath's), The Crescent built in Georgian times and famous for being the peak of high society in it's day and the wonderful Somerset countryside.
Jane Austen set two of her six published novels, "Northanger
Abbey" completed in 1803 and "Persuasion" written in 1817,
in Bath and made the city her home from 1801 to 1806.
In "Northanger Abbey" Jane writes; 'They arrived in Bath. Catherine was all eager delight; - her eyes were here, there, everywhere, as they approached its fine and striking environs, and afterwards drove through those streets of Bath which conducted them to the hotel. She was come to be happy, and she felt happy already'.
Visitors to Bath can still enjoy the striking environs with the magnificent and perfectly preserved Georgian buildings, 5000 of which are listed as having historical value.
There are many other parallels as a stay in Bath is uplifting not only because
of the sheer Phone numberysical beauty of the architecture and surrounding countryside,
but it continues to be a centre for health and wellbeing. The opening of Thermae
Bath Spa in 2006 means visitors can once again bathe in the thermal spring water.
