In the know
- Our favourite rooms
- Bird in the Hand is a gorgeous double in chalky French tones; a huge Louis XV bed dominates the room. The ethno-modern hodgepodge decor of the newer Courtyard rooms sits a little uneasily alongside the more stylish rooms in the main house, so we'd plump for the latter every time.
- Packing tips
- DVDs and dressing gowns if you have room in the weekender.
- Also
- For the best Bath Arms experience, ask for a room above the pub, rather than adjacent to it.
Current offers
- Smith card offer
- A bottle of house wine with dinner
