09:00 – meet the group’s driver and Jane Austen expert guide in Reception and step back in time with a visit to the picturesque village of Lacock.
With its cobbled streets, charming stone cottages, and absence of modern intrusions, Lacock feels like a living period set—so much so that it has featured in numerous film and television productions, including adaptations of Pride and Prejudice and the Harry Potter series. Lacock is in the outskirts of the Cotswolds and offers a delightful escape into England’s timeless countryside charm.
At Lacock, your guide will take you on a 40 minute stroll through the village to discover traditional inns, independent shops, and beautiful views at every turn. You will have the opportunity to explore Lacock Abbey, whose atmospheric cloisters and historic rooms reveal centuries of stories, from medieval nuns to Victorian photography pioneer William Henry Fox Talbot.
Return to Bath in time for lunch and a free afternoon.
Use the Hop-on-hop-off bus to see the City and the view from the top of Bath’s outlying hills, or visit the Roman Baths, or Bath’s fashionable shopping areas.
