Getting around Bath
The drive to Bristol Airport from Bath typically takes 30–40 minutes via the A4 and A38, since there's no direct motorway link. Bath is also well placed for onward travel to Bristol city centre (around 13 miles) and into Somerset and Wiltshire. Given the city's tourist volume, especially around the Roman Baths and Christmas Market season, pre-booking ahead of peak periods is worth doing.
