Bath is known for its distinctive yellow stone – it looks like no other city in England. It was built around the only hot spring in the country, and the temple and baths that the Romans built are still present in the city today. Hiring a car in Bath is a good way to see the city as well as heading out into the Somerset countryside. The Roman baths have a modern equivalent, the Thermae Spa, which has a roof pool where you can look out over the city.
Bath is a beautiful city with lots to see and do, but renting a car from Bath can also take you to other exciting places. One hour's drive from Bath is Stonehenge, the mysterious monument in Wiltshire. No one really knows how or why it was built, but the fascinating thing is that two of the standing stones are perfectly lined up with the rising and setting sun. By renting a car in Bath, you can also go to Longleat Zoo, also in Wiltshire. It has a meerkat walkthrough enclosure and is a great day out for the family.
