Happy Valentines, February is upon us and its traditionally the most romantic time of the year, so it seems timely that we list our most romantic things to see and places to go here in Bath, a city often voted ‘Most Romantic City in the UK’.
Don’t worry, there is something to suit every budget although we recommend being romantic all year through. So here are some ideas that will keep the romance alive whatever the season.

Once the weather warms up, go messing about on the river with Bath Boating. Choose a row-boat, a punt or for more of a workout try a canoe or kayak.
