    Iconic location if you visit Bath. A crescent of 5 storey townhouses in the beautiful local stone. Stunning views across the city and local park. The houses are privately owned and there’s no public parking available but it’s pleasant to wander around the crescent to see how the other half live.

    One of the seven crescents in Bath city that are symbols of Georgian style architecture adipted between early 1700's to early 1800,s. This is the closest to roman bath located just 10 min walk from there. it consists of 30 rerraced houses and this crescent has been built between 1767 and 1774 and features stunning architecture. There is a park next to the crescent to sit and relax. Tioilets are available in the park. 20p to be paid by card.

    Probably the one place in Bath that most people recognise and it's easy to see why; a prime example of elegant Georgian architecture and wonderfully preserved. If you are lucky enough to see it without any scaffolding so much the better. There are great views across Bath and dont forget the museum at No 1 Royal Crescent to learn more about Georgian home and heritage.

    I’m sure very beautiful in the summer, but I was there in Winter. Architecture’s amazing, worth driving / walking through when sunny. I think it’s peoples houses though, so I feel it’s controversial to promote this location as if I were living there I wouldn’t want floods of tourists visiting my front yard looking into my house.

    Simply beautiful. Had always wanted to visit here after seeing photos so many times, and I was not disappointed. Bigger in real life than I thought, but just as pretty. Well worth a walk up the hill to see this if you're in the area.

    A space of marvel and royalty. The beauty of the structure, including the shape and vastness is something to behold. Having a large grassy open space in the front is thoughtful and magical. We really enjoyed lounging in the grass and soaking up the feel and energy of Bath. It’s a beautiful spot to meet friends, go for a walk, or set up a picnic.

    Went to a Michael Buble outdoor concert held in front of The Crescent. It was the perfect setting for an amazing show. Residents of The Crescent were lucky to have a front row seat either in their windows or on the roof. Everyone enjoyed a great night.

    what a well kept wonderful area to walk around and there was filming going on when we visited, but all together a lovely walk

    Lovely park to do your walk, especially if you have a well behaved friendly dog (as there are lots and is petty to have it on a leash) or kids. We haven't visited the museum as was not interested but maybe is worth it if you are there.

  • 4/5 Kay S. 1 year ago on Google
    We enjoyed being able to view this Georgian house. Although there was a video playing in each room, we would have liked more information on the actual people who had lived at the property rather than this play type video. The lady at the entrance kept flicking her fringe, which distracted from the information she was trying to convey.

    This place is absolutely amazing, with a large space and crescent shaped buildings surrounding the ground. People playing with dogs in park. Some casual strollers and some admiring the beauty of this place. Its quite and peaceful.

  • 5/5 Ankit G. 5 months ago on Google
    Feel the architectural beauty and nature around this place. Open lush green ground and park, plenty of parking near by, toilets are there and gorgeous bath views from some streets. This place is amazing to spend time with family and kids.

    One of the best examples of Georgian Architecture in England and one of the best spots of Bath. The walk to reach this space is worth it as the view is simply stunning.

    The city of Bath is huge. This area is a tourist spot as well. The people love the green pasture. You can visit this area with your loved ones and your furry friends. The buildings here are expensive since they go up in millions for sale. Behind The Cresent is another park. You are basically spoilt for choice. The roads are narrow but that's all you can do with small spaces.

    Not usually my regular listening experience but it was our wedding anniversary weekend. Buble was excellent, so funny and amazing orchestra. Our wedding first dance 22 years ago was Sway by Dean Martin and it was so funny when he did it 😃

    What a beautiful park! There are plenty of activities going on. Just check the information boards to see what’s happening on that day. We saw the local orchestra performing old a new classics. Definitely five stars.
