Bath forum Im planning to go this weekend to Bath Spa for the first time.But hotel I'm staying at in White Hart by Marstons Inns, CHIPPENHAM.Is it possible to get there by public transport.My traveling start from London to Bath Spa bus station.Also something about Chippenham some nice places to visit?
There are trains twice an hour travel between Bath and Chippenham, taking 11 minutes.
Your bus from London to Bath Spa stops in Chippenham - why on earth have you booked it to Bath?
So, are you getting the National Express bus from London to Bath ? I don't understand !
Anyway, there's not a lot in Chippenham I'm afraid. I lived there for a year and was glad to move back to Bath !
Hang on !!!
Is it correct that you are staying in the White Hart pub in Ford? A Marstons pub ?
The pub is in Ford even though the address given is Chippenham. It's on the A420. It's miles several miles from Chippenham in the middle of nowhere !
Please give further info as the the exact address and postcode of your accomodation !!!

Matt is absolutely right I'm afraid, the White Hart is some distance from Chippenham town centre and an even longer way from Bath.
Buses run to there to Chippenham town centre and also to Bristol but NOT to Bath. You are going to waste a lot of money on taxis if you stay there.

Yes,correct,this hotel in Ford.Thanks for the information,it is not only wasting of money on additional transport but wasting of time aswell!So im staying in Bath.What you think about Bailbrook House,London road west,ba17jd?Is it any specific,nice places to visit in Bath?
Whilst it is in Bath, it is a good 20 minutes walk from the city centre.
Bailbrook House is towards Batheaston, on the other side of the roundabout that goes across the top of the A36 bypass, as R C says, it's a long walk along a busy main road into the city from there.
True, but bus 13 runs along London road to the City Centre every 20 minutes during the daytime, so not impossible.

I lived in Larkhall and from where I lived (Daffords Buildings) it was a 25 minute walk into the centre. (And I walk fast!)
So from the other side of that roundabout you are looking at a 40+ minute walk minimum.
I love that map for Bailbrook House - not only is it not to scale by a very long way, but it's also out of date by a few years. Safeway on London Road anyone !? ;-D
P.S. the walk along the Kennet & Avon towpath from Bathampton or Lambridge to Sydney Gardens is nice ;-)
Iam really thankful for all this information!!!Definetly It is helps:)Our trip will start this weekend and i will keep in touch!
