The story

Since 1768

The houses were built between 1768 and 1775 by the architects who shaped Georgian Bath. Their honey-coloured stone came from the quarries on the hill you can see from the roof.

Taking the waters is why people came to Bath; our rooftop pool is our version, warm all year and best at dusk.
