Visitors can once again see its exhibits and marvel at the landscape from atop the spire. Funded by donations from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and many others, Beckford's new features include restored access to the roof and vault, as well as a slew of sustainability measures such as solar panels for power generation.
  • Arts and Culture: The chill of winter will be replaced by the chill of terror, brought to you by the West End production of The Woman in Black, which will be performed at the Theatre Royal Bath. The spine-tingling performances will run from the 11th until the 16th of March, 2024.
  • Filming in Bath: For those who are fans of Regency dramas, the Bridgerton in Bath itinerary will be perfect for your holiday. The filming for the third season of Bridgerton has wrapped up in Bath and this massive hit adaptation will be airing in spring of 2024 on Netflix.
