City/town information
The pretty town of Corsham has an old high street, which has been used for scenes in Poldark and other period dramas. The Flemish Weaver was the pub used in the series. Walk by the post office and turn right. You will reach Corsham Court and from here you can walk across the parklands to the lake.

Another lovely town only a few minutes drive away. It is a great place to stroll around the old town and some interesting shops, have a nice lunch in many of the cafes. Don't miss the little square opposite the coop and there are more eateries behind the Coop. Beautiful walks to be had along the canal, or hire a kayak or bike. I'd recommend a walk along the canal to the aqueduct and earn a drink at The Cross Guns pub. Beautiful scenery. The Canal Tavern or The Lock Inn are other good dining options next to the canal. Don't miss The Tithe Barn and area around it. Children will enjoy the two parks by The Tithe Barn. One has a good zip wire.

Sightseeing
This beautiful Tudor village is a must see for me. A lovely place to wander around. Used in many period dramas and used in Harry Potter movies. Lacock Abbey is also an interesting option and The Fox Talbot Museum is also here. A children's park and picnic spot is opposite The Museum. Parking is available at The Red Lion or in The National Trust Car Park.

A nice day out is to drive to Bathampton Mill and enjoy a drink or meal, then take a 40 minute walk along the canal to the centre of Bath. Exit at Sydney Gardens. Walk through to The Holbourne Museum for a coffee/ wine in the beautiful café. Explore the free museum and then walk up Great Pulteney Street to the centre of Bath. You can catch a river cruiser back to Bathampton Mill but check the times and availability.

Take a picnic and sit under a tree or enjoy the excellent cafe onsite. These gardens are a special place. They just feel beautiful to be in and all seems calm and serene when you are there. Not huge so you won't need a whole day but a couple of hours here will be well spent. 4 miles away. National Trust.

Tipps für Reisende
Verkehrsmittel
Travel into Bath
The bus stop is only one minute from here and is a very good option. 18/20 minutes.
If you prefer to drive into Bath, it is an easy route. Turn left at the clock tower and stay on this road. Go straight over at the roundabout onto the dual carriageway and then first exit. Left again and this leads you into the city.
I like to park in the Cattle Market car park in Walcot Street. It is this side of town / middle. If you want to spend a long time in Bath, Charlotte Street car park is the cheapest for all day stays.
