Thermae Bath Spa, Bath

You may not be able to swim in Bath’s world famous Roman Baths – but around the corner, a new attraction offers the next best thing. Thermae Bath Spa, redeveloped in the last decade, is an open air, naturally heated spa that combines the existing Georgian spa of Cross Bath with a brand new spa facility, New Royal Bath. Bath is home to the only naturally warm mineral water springs in the UK. The foundation of Bath in the Roman era, and its subsequent rebirth as a health resort in the 18th century, were down to this unique geographical feature.

With the reopening of the historic Cross Bath spa, and the addition of ultra-modern facilities, Thermae Bath Spa will ensure that Bath remains a booming spa town. The spa offers a range of packages for visitors, from £68 for a three hour spa session to £188 for a day in the facility. The spa’s frontage is constructed from distinctive Bath stone with a contemporary glass surround. Thermae Bath Spa is located on Hot Bath Street, in the middle of Bath’s historic city centre.
