Location: Sydney Place, Bathwick, Bath, BA2 6NH
Sydney Gardens, a Grade II listed park dating from 1795, is the only remaining Georgian pleasure garden in the UK. Historically a draw to fashionable society, early patrons included Jane Austen, who lived for several years in adjoining Sydney Place.
This peaceful location contains a variety of open and more intimate spaces, including parkland, woodland, pretty waterside walks, tennis courts and a neoclassical loggia and Temple of Minerva. A series of stately walkways and white Chinoiserie bridges frame elegant vistas across the gently sloping site, to the city centre, and the countryside beyond.
