Touring Bath And Lacock - Day 2 On The Great West Way, Bath To Devizes
Exploring Bath, Somerset - it’s the second day of the #TheGreatWestWay trip and we take a tour of the Roman Baths. There is a good audio guide and usually a few Roman characters to interact with along the way so you can practice your Monty Python “What have the Romans ever done for us?”
Watch the full Great West Way trip:
As Mel is a jewellery fan we had chance to visit Nicholas Wylde jewellers in the centre of Bath. The city has lots of independent retailers and there is lots of great shopping so watch your credit card. There is plenty to do in Bath and its definitely worth spending at least a couple of days there.
Before lunch it was tour time with Around And About Bath, a tour is one of the best way to get to know a city. You can find out more about the main sites, also the more unusual and darker side of Georgian life (we left out the toilet references!)
After lunch at Koffmann And Mr White’s which is in the centre of the city just behind bath Abbey it was off to the village of Lacock and Lacock Abbey. Lacock is a quaint Wiltshire village and Lacock Abbey has been used as a film location in a number of famous films. The biggest being Harry Potter.
Finally it was a dash to Devizes Marina, Wiltshire for a stay at the Devizes Marina lodge which overlooks the canal boats, our lodge had a hot tub on the deck area, a great way to relax!

Places You Wouldn't Want To Live in The U.K.
When most people imagine the United Kingdom, they think of London, wry humor and polite people. It might seem unthinkable that Great Britain has some real dung piles among its treasures but these 5 cities will have you wondering why there is a “Great” in front of “Britain”.
At number 5. Sandwell
The available jobs in this West Midlands town are so poorly paid that the average resident has zero disposable income. The good news for locals is that Sandwell has a pretty high mortality rate, so they don’t have to suffer for very long.
At Number 4. Gwent Valleys
No matter which metric you choose to measure Gwent Valleys scores poorly. Crime? Check. Poor healthcare? Check. A-hole teenagers all around? Oh yeah. In a country that’s filled with coastline and rolling hills, Gwent Valleys has none of that. It’s just the worst.
At Number 3. High Wycombe
Petty crime and drug use are present; as is a low employment rate. The little money High Wycombe does have it spends on the schools which is great. Of course, that doesn’t do the average tourist any good.
At Number 2. Southampton
Southampton is simply filled with half-destroyed buildings blotting the landscape. To be fair, the place was bombed in World War II. That is a pretty solid excuse, but on the other hand, they’ve had the better part of eighty years to get the place back in order …
And at number 1. Morecambe
In the 1930s, luminaries like Coco Chanel used to hang out in Morecambe These days, Morecambe is more known for its dilapidation. The coastline outside the city is stunning, but if you’re being completely honest, coasts aren’t exactly a point of pride, and neither is Morecambe.
Where do you think the worst place in Great Britain is?
