One of the most striking sights in Bath is Bath Abbey - it looks imposing by day but possibly even more so when lit up at night.
On our second day we took an open-topped bus tour of Bath, a city tour of around 40 minutes and a skyline tour about the same length. It was on the city tour that we clocked the location of the Jane Austen Centre! Tristan and my Dad shared a grimace but they both came with Mum and I to visit the centre, listen to the talk about Jane's life and her relationship with the city of Bath and wander round the exhibits on the shooting of Persuasion (a neck and neck favourite with Pride and Prejudice for me) and of regency life.
I found out plenty of things about Jane's time in Bath and about her family that I hadn't known before and the centre itself is beautifully put together with friendly, knowledgeable staff and also a fabulous gift shop. Well worth popping by if you're also an Austen fan.
