Tip 1: This is the real thing to see when you come to Bath, not the Roman Bath Museum! The architecture is amazing! We also noticed one of the apartments with sealed window. According to the old ancient English ruling, the more windows you installed in your flat, the more tax you will have to pay. The particular flat we... More

Can't believe there are 6 levels in some of the houses. Amazing architecture. Lovely sculptures on the front of the buildings. Well worth a visit. Easy to walk up from the town centre.

Every travel brochure you read about Bath has The Circus as a "must see" . Well now I've seen it and it is charming , with the beautiful architecture and central parkland. Just a pity all of the cars parked out front spoilt the vista

Another place that you have to visit when in Bath. Nice to take photos and marvel at the Georgian architecture, but nothing much else.

The Circus is a must to see, you feel as if you've been transported back in time. Easy to find and not much of a walk up from the centre of Bath.

Nothing much to see other than the shape of the buildings there...no facility around. We were totally disappointed. Waste of time..was as good as the picture.

Cannot be missed if you are here to admire the beauty of Georgian Bath. Close your eyes and imagine you are waiting for your carriage to take you to the Pump Rooms to take the waters.

Walked up to the Circus to see what it actually was, and it was really interesting seeing how such old buildings can still be used and look as good as these do. It must be really nice to live or work there.
