In the heart of Bath's UNESCO-protected historical streets, this home is like something out of a regency romance novel, combining elegant Georgian chic with modern highlights. The wood-panelled walls and grand cornices of the living room have been updated in a soft, stone colour, while the deep green sofa and leather armchair wouldn't be out of place in the library of a grand mansion. The huge windows flood the space with beams of natural light, and the original fireplace harks back to days of brandy and cigars. The striking kitchen in black and gold has everything you need for self-catering, but the city centre's pubs and restaurants are right on your doorstep if you'd prefer to leave the cooking to someone else (you're on holiday, after all).
