The area around Henrietta Mews and Henrietta Park is loaded with charming Georgian Townhouses like this one. You can find all the popular tourists haunts like Bath’s famous Pump Rooms and the Jane Austen Centre just across the gorgeous Pulteney Bridge – the centrepiece of this first-class World Heritage site and one of only four bridges in the world lined with shops on both sides. The Kennard Hotel is a modest yet handsome affair, built in the late 1700s and boasting the kind of lavish Regency decor certain to melt even the cold, calm heart of Austen’s Mr Darcy. Here’s a little of what the hotel can offer:

• 12 tasteful period bedrooms – all boasting the high-ceilings, lush cornices and rich plasterwork that defined the Regency era. The heavy drapes and canopied King-Sized beds in the Superior Double Rooms should appease even the poorest of sleepers.
• FREE wi-fi, flat-screen televisions and refreshment trays supplied as standard.
• Luxury breakfast room with Venetian chandeliers and fine, bone china crockery
• Stunning and classically designed landing area with striking Corinthian column and stylish chaise-longues.
• Laundry and valet service available.
