Botanical Gardens — Attraction in Bath

The Bath Botanical Gardens are a lovely place to spend an hour or two. Levelled, with smooth paths, it's wheelchair and pram friendly. Across the year you can enjoy diverse plants, but also the squirrels who come really close to you. There is a little coffee/tea seller too.

Parking spaces can regularly be found around the gardens, so very easy access for people with limited mobility.

Dogs allowed but MUST BE ON A LEAD something many people sadly ignore! Popular with parents with toddlers in the Summer , with plenty of grass to lay out your picnic! Beautiful even in Winter. The gardeners deserve a mention as they work hard keeping the gardens up to scratch, so a big thank you to them. Large pond, with waterfall has been out of action for past few years. I suspect budget cuts might well be to blame?
