Immaculately presented, this home is all about the soft colour palette and thoughtful accessories which create an aura that envelops you and makes it feel like home from the moment you step inside. From the Scandi-inspired interiors you wouldn't guess this building was built in 1778 – as with the rest of the city, it has a rich history waiting to be discovered. It’s right in the centre of bath, so you can walk to the shops, restaurants and popular sights. Then, at the end of the day, come back to this relaxing haven to curl up on the plush sofa with a good book or step outside on the terrace with a glass of wine.
