48 hours in… Bath
WHERE TO STAY
Savour premium whiskies in the hidden terrace gardens of the Queensberry Hotel, which is set in a quartet of historic Georgian townhouses. It’s only a short stroll from the city centre and the food is great too; thequeensberry.co.uk
WHERE TO GO
When in Bath, do as the Bathonians do, which obviously involves bathing. Sink into the piping hot waters of the Thermae Bath Spa (thermaebathspa.com), or learn about baths past at the Roman Baths (romanbaths.co.uk)
WHERE TO DRINK
You could hardly find a more genteel place than Bath, but when night descends bars like Opium give the city an edge. With vaulted ceilings and a wide selection of mind-bending cocktails, this atmospheric bar keeps hipster Bathonians entertained into the wee hours. opiumbars.com
