Travel & Parking

By car

We have a small car park accessible via Princes Street (£5 per hour). Spaces are limited, so we recommend allowing enough time to use an alternative car park if we are full. The closest public car park is Charlotte Street Car Park (BA1 2NE), just a short stroll away.

By train

Bath Spa station is your stop. From there, it’s a leisurely 15-minute walk through the city, or if you’d rather, a quick five-minute taxi ride will have you at our door in no time.

Accessibility

Our spa is accessible via the front entrance with a ramp (our doormen are happy to assist). Access to the spa is via lift, with ramped areas throughout and an accessible changing room available. If you have any mobility needs, please contact us before your visit so we can ensure the right support is in place (please note our therapists cannot assist with mobility needs (e.g. moving, showering, getting on/off beds). If you need this support, please bring a carer with you).
