Compare Bath car hire

Leave the gorgeous architecture of Bath behind for a little while and take a look at what else England has to offer...

The beauty of hiring a car is that it gives visitors the opportunity to explore not only the city itself, but also the surrounding areas of north-east Somerset, such as the thriving city of Bristol.

This hub of creativity and energy is known for excellent nightlife, elegant architecture, family attractions and landmarks such as the Clifton Suspension Bridge. The worldwide fame of street artist Banksy draws visitors to Bristol, too. This anarchic and unconventional artist created many early works around the city and it won’t take long before you spot one.

The Old City and Harbourside also demand time in Bristol and reward tourists with museums, eateries and medieval architecture. It takes around 40 minutes by road to reach Bristol from central Bath.

Other towns worth a visit include Midsomer Norton. History lovers will revel in the delights of the museum in Radstock, which celebrates the fascinating lives of those who lived through the industrial era.

At the southern tip of the Cotswolds region, Bath is also perfectly located to see more of this beautifully bucolic slice of Britain.

For a taste of the British seaside, drive from Bath to the flat sands of Weston-Super-Mare. It’s a journey of around an hour by road. When the sun shines there’s nothing nicer than strolling along the sand with an ice cream or a salt-and-vinegar-laden portion of fish and chips.
