“We lucked into the most magical day on our Cotswolds tour with Chris as our guide! What to say? We were excited for it but the tour so exceeded even our most hopeful expectations. Chris brought us to several villages-- and on the fly curated the trip around our expressed interests and those of the additional guest (who was also an amazing human and like a friend by the end of the tour!). He is unbelievably knowledgable. But what sets Chris apart is the way he distills complex history into an understandable story that very quickly facilitates enhanced appreciation for the deep significance of these places beyond their obvious beauty. I took pages of notes and came away with an intense desire to learn more about the place and British history. As an added bonus, Chris is funny, witty, helpful, kind, and interested. He is passionate about history and traveling and that all just enhanced is story telling. It truly was an experience of a lifetime and we are so grateful to Chris for that gift. On the more business like side-- pick up was prompt, van was great, water appreciated, tea and lunch spots authentic and wonderfully charming. Can't stop looking at the pictures! if you're on the fence about this tour-- don't be-- GO!!!!!! THANK YOU CHRIS!!!!! :)”

“If I could give 6 stars, I would! After having a rubbish time at a different practice before, this was a perfect experience. The team are lovely, you're very looked after. The actual treatment was great. I had lip filler and Rebecca was amazing. She spent loads of time with me, made sure it was just as I wanted. It was surprisingly pain free, I felt in very safe hands, all just great. Would absolutely recommend, and I love my lips, thanks so much!”

“All staff were lovely but a particular mention to Kathryn, my dedicated nurse on Claverton Ward. She was kind, caring and gentle and answered any questions fully.

Excellent care from start (contact with the efficient secretaries) to finish.”

“I went to Eva a few months ago to have laser treatment on cherry angioma and a few patches of hyperpigmentation. Eva is very knowledgeable and skilled.

I’ll definitely go back to her for future treatments.”

“Had a cracking guided bike tour led by Darroch and his team. Fabulous route along the canals of Bath and Bradford-on-Avon with lots of insightful local knowledge along the way. Great quality bikes. A really well run company with a personal touch. Highly recommended.”

“I cannot recommend Lara Taylor from Reside Bath highly enough. She has been kind, professional, responsive, and genuinely a joy to work with throughout the entire process. Having rented in major cities like New York and London, I’ve dealt with many letting agents, but Lara is truly in a league of her own. She is a big reason why I ultimately chose the property I did in Bath (even though I had other options). She went above and beyond to make what could have been a stressful and bureaucratic process feel smooth, straightforward, and even enjoyable. Renting a new home should be exciting, and Lara ensured that it stayed that way by handling every detail with care and efficiency. Not only is she a pleasure to speak with, but she is also a real asset to her office. I honestly cannot say enough positive things about her—if you’re lucky enough to work with Lara, you’ll see exactly what I mean!”

“We have been swimming with Puddle Ducks since our son was 10 weeks old, and he is now 3. He has come on leaps and bounds (quite literally!) He is so confident in the water and the focus on safety gives us sense a reassurance. He absolutely loves swimming and it’s something that we love to do together. The teachers are all amazing (and we’ve particularly loved having Carly and Vicki) and are so passionate, they also make the classes so fun. Thank you Puddle Ducks!”

“Incredible Italian Deli in bath with an array of great ingredients as well as some amazing sandwiches made fresh right in front of you. So fresh that you can see them baking the bread before putting the toppings in it! I asked what they recommended and went with the number 3 which came with mortadella, pesto, burrata etc. It was delicious and I wish we had more places like this in Brighton.”

“The gentleman who helped us select some local beers was very helpful and patient while we picked. Some very interesting findings!”

“It was incredibly fun, cleverly spooky, and genuinely entertaining. We wandered through the city at night, exploring corners with eerie stories and legends that made Bath feel magical and mysterious. What truly made the experience outstanding was the guide’s amazing sense of humour and storytelling skills. The way he narrated each story kept us hooked suspenseful when it needed to be, and absolutely hilarious when we least expected it. You could tell he loved what he was doing, and that energy was contagious. The atmosphere was friendly despite the creepy stories, and the guide made an effort to interact with everyone in the group, which added a personal and engaging touch. I laughed so much and still learned quite a bit about the city's dark history in the most entertaining way possible. Whether you're into ghost stories or not, this is a must-do experience in Bath. I’d definitely do it again. It’s a perfect mix of local legend, humour, and theatrical fun. If you're looking for something different, this tour will absolutely surprise you.”

“I signed up with Bath Spa Dentistry some months ago and I am so pleased I did. I had a plan discussed and all the fees calculated. I find it reassuring to know what treatment and expenses to expect from my visits. Robbie seems very knowledgeable and explains everything in detail. It is clear that patient care is in focus and I never felt pressured to follow any of his suggestions. I was equally impressed by Jess the hygienist. She immediately identified the causes for my teeth issues which no other dentist/hygienist have managed before. She took her time to explain and advise and her expertise was very impressive. The receptionist is always friendly and in general I feel very comfortable and relaxed when visiting which is quite an achievement from a dentist practice.”

“With only a short amount of time in Bath this weekend, we were advised to join one of the Mayor of Bath’s Honorary Guides’ free walking tours, which depart from outside the Pump Room - which was an excellent recommendation. Our guide for the two-hour tour was Simon, whose enthusiasm, warmth, and depth of knowledge brought the city’s history to life as we explored its back streets, landmarks, and hidden corners. He made a genuine effort to connect with everyone in the group, tailoring anecdotes and facts to people’s interests whether related to geography, culture, or simply where they were from. The tour was informative, entertaining, and surprisingly unique, especially considering the challenges of navigating Bath’s narrow lanes, busy roads, hills, and uneven pavements. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend it. We were also delighted and a little astonished to learn that the guides do not accept tips. It’s a wonderful way to discover a city from people who share its stories purely out of passion for the place they call home.”

“Very good haircut, professional service with 20 years experience. Also very clean and hygienic. Would recommend highly.”
