"Perhaps it’s the location a few minutes outside of Bath proper that allows the Homewood Hotel & Spa to take some liberties with the typically traditional local style. This handsome Georgian country house is packed with personality, from the topiary teddy bear to the colorful and eclectic rooms and suites. The expansive indoor-outdoor spa is enough to ensure you won’t miss Bath’s baths, and the restaurant, Olio, serves a hybrid British-Mediterranean cuisine crafted from local products." - Tablet Hotels
