A stylish Victorian Townhouse set in the heart of Bath, ideal for exploring the historic city home to the Roman Baths, Thermae Spa, a host of boutiques and galleries and a much-celebrated foodie scene. Broad Street Townhouse offers a luxurious home-from-home, boasting eleven individually designed bedrooms, with a characterful café at the hub, transforming into a low-key cocktail/wine bar in the evenings. Owned by Butcombe Pub and Inns, the building has been sympathetically restored to its former 19th-centrury glory, providing modern luxury with a nod to its Georgian past. Next door is the Townhouse's lively sister pub, The Pig & Fiddle, where guests can enjoy seasonal pub classics and beers and ales from the Butcombe Brewery. Suited to couples and city-explorers, guests can sink into comfy rooms, with added luxuries.
Step out onto Broad Street and browse an eclectic mix of boutiques, old-school pubs, hip cafés and restaurants, including the Pig & Fiddle pub next door.

The spacious superior room stole the show with its gorgeous heritage hues, sumptuous textiles and classic English furnishings. The huge roll-top bath was the icing on the cake - and the perfect antidote to a day exploring the city.
