Celebrated for its rich cultural history, this Georgian city has played host to a number of literary figures, both real and fictional, who would journey to Bath for its popular social scene and to ‘take in the waters’ of the hot springs. Jane Austen, the city’s most famous resident, set both Northanger Abbey and Persuasion in Bath, the epicentre of fashionable society.
