- A Trip to Bath | Bath, England, UK | Carolyn Miller
A day trip to Bath, England, and some of the wonderful places to see and activities to do in this beautiful historic city. A DAY TRIP TO BATH First Stop: Let’s begin by taking a look at the namesake, the UNESCO World Heritage listed Roman Baths . Bath is a city founded by the Romans in the first century AD, named (unsurprisingly!) for the hot springs upon which the Romans built a bathing complex, and the Temple of Sulis Minerva. These ruins are some of the most important Roman remains north of the Alps, with the associated waters considered to hold health-giving properties, which led to it becoming England’s premier Spa town of the Georgian period. The hot waters at Bath contain many minerals which have long been considered beneficial, especially for the ill and the elderly. In Regency times people were encouraged to drink or ‘take the waters’ at the Pump Room , which – surprise! – pumped the water from below and delivered it via a beautiful stone fountain to the willing. Fans of Jane Austen films such as Persuasion and Northanger Abbey may remember seeing scenes set here. As well as being a place to drink to your health, it was also a place where one could promenade, to catch up on the latest gossip, to see and be seen. Today, one can still do the same! Second Stop: Just a few steps away is the magnificent Bath Abbey (look at its amazing front door!) Bath Abbey was founded in the 7th Century as a Benedictine monastery, which owes a lot of its current splendour to major restoration work in the mid-1800s, which means it is a little different to what Catherine and Jon would have seen, but its size and beauty is most apparent. This Grade 1 listed building is a wonderful example of Gothic architecture, and is noted for its breath-taking fan vaulting and stained glass. Definitely worth a visit. (And Aussie friends – see who is commemorated here? Captain Arthur Philip is buried in a village nearby) Third Stop: A walk past the shops and more beautiful 1700s buildings takes us to Queens Square (where I imagine Catherine’s Aunt Drusilla having an abode), and a short distance further along Gay Street brings us to the Jane Austen centre . Here one can learn more about this illustrious author, take a tour and discover fascinating facts about the Regency era, try on Regency attire or have a go at using a quill. You can even take tea with Mr. Darcy! The Jane Austen centre, Bath A portrait of Jane Austen Rules of etiquette A tea caddy - complete with lock! Regency wear, Jane Austen centre Regency wear, Jane Austen centre Bath newspaper clipping, Regency era Quill and ink, Jane Austen centre Tea with Mr Darcy 1/1 Fourth Stop: Next, we need to attend the location for tonight’s masquerade ball – the Upper Assembly Rooms . A walk up Milsom Steet takes us to the Assembly Rooms, where elegant society would assemble and mingle and perhaps engage in matchmaking. These rooms consist of the Ballroom, Octagonal room, tea rooms, and card rooms, and were the site of dances, concerts and lectures, and the site of many dramatic scenes for Austen heroines. I used these elegant 18th Century rooms for a number of pivotal scenes for Miss Winthrop – including a masquerade! Fifth Stop: Not far away is another of the iconic scenes of Bath – the Royal Crescent , a row of 30 terraced houses in a semicircle, and one of the most fabulous examples of Georgian architecture in Britain, and a prestige address with its views over the park opposite. Of course, the Royal Crescent is also famous for THAT scene in the 2007 TV film of Persuasion . Bath is built in the valley of the River Avon , with many steep streets and rows of terraced houses lining the surrounding hills. A walk along the river takes you across the beautiful Pulteney Bridge and up another hill to Sydney Gardens . This is another location mentioned in Austen and Georgette Heyer novels, and a place any true Austen aficionado should visit – and Austen-inspired authors should use. So, of course I had to set several scenes here, especially as the many trees and paths make it perfect for secret rendezvous. Well, today has been a big day, so it must be time to head back to our Bed & Breakfast, and get ready for tonight's Masquerade. Thank you for joining me - I hope you've had a fun visit in beautiful World Heritage-listed Bath! Bath has many iconic settings for those who love their Jane Austen films!

Christian Regency romance inspired by Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer NOW AVAILABLE DAWN'S UNTRODDEN GREEN ~ Book 3 in the Regency Wallflowers series Not much happens in Theodosia Stapleton's tiny Northumberland village. Certainly not to her. She has resigned herself to spinsterhood, caring for her ailing mother in the home of her grandfather, known to the locals as "General Contrary." When her dear friend dies and leaves behind a daughter, it's simple enough to take the child into her own quiet world. That is, until her ward's famous uncle unexpectedly arrives and throws Theo's tidy orbit completely off-kilter. Fame was the last thing Daniel Balfour sought when he fought in the Peninsular War. But his brave exploits caught the attention of the King, and now the honors he was given hound him everywhere . . . even on his rushed trip to rescue his orphaned niece. Theo's quick wit and warm smile reassure him that Rebecca is in good hands, and he finds himself free to swiftly return to London and his responsibilities. But those caring hands are beginning to look like they could also safely hold his heart, and he's tempted to linger. Unfortunately, marriage is simply not in the cards; the army is spouse enough for him. Then an accident and a scandal lead both Theo and Daniel to discover that their best-laid plans may not have been what God designed for them after all.

Old boats in Brighton Brighton pier wasn't built until 1899, but Brighton was always a popular place for amusement - and for fishing Click here to check out reviews for The Dishonorable Miss DeLancey Did you know that m any noble families (that is, those ranked a Baron or higher) hold more than one name: the family name, often used by the children e.g. Miss DeLancey, and the name attached to the title e.g. Lord and Lady Winpoole. The eldest son of an Earl, Marquess or Duke usually had another title as well, which tended to be an honorary, unused title belonging to his father. This means the Marquess of Exeter's son would be known as a Viscount - just to add to the fun factor (or confusion!) Do you like Pinterest?

Can happily-ever-afters be found in real life as well as fiction? Buy Now REGAINING MERCY Book 12 in the Independence Islands series Going on Love at First Glance had seemed like such a good idea.

When Mindy returns to Elnora, the girl from the “wrong side of the island” just wants a chance to rebuild her reputation. Too bad the folks at church don’t practice what the preacher preaches. Enter Dermott Reilly. The interim boss at Greener Gardens has always had a soft spot for Mindy and her son, but with his new responsibilities, an important garden competition, and a few other concerns, he finds it difficult to prove himself to her.

Kai, however, can’t help but be intrigued by someone who challenges him to make something of his life again. He’s determined to pursue her, if she’ll give him half a chance. The more time they spend together, negotiating the challenges of work, illness, and family, the more their opposing outlooks clash and connect. What do these unlikely friends really want from life?

Bookworm Bella Dwyer just wants to feel safe, and Tim’s actions during the robbery made her believe there might be guys who live up to her fictional heroes. Trouble is, a chance with Tim seems as remote as this year’s celebrity heartthrob. Instead, she settled for a relationship with a guy who’s commitment-phobic. So when Bella encounters Tim on tiny Sparrow Island, the challenges of her past and present collide, and she questions whether there really is a future with a man who can't commit. In a leap of faith, Bella dumps her boyfriend, even before shy-guy Tim can make a move.

Stuck without any other options, Josie is forced to accept her sister’s offer of a job that takes her to Breakers Head where she encounters Aussie teacher, Lachlan Jones. A long-lost relative might’ve brought Lachie to a tiny music recording studio on the Independence Islands, but it’s also brought questions about how to care for someone he barely knows, especially considering he’s the last family she has. Questions regarding his future soon pale when he encounters the vibrant-haired Josie, whose sass and attitude takes some getting used to. Neither imagined more until they began to bond over music and environmental causes. Both discover that first impressions need not be lasting ones. But with the future of Gardens Gardens looking shaky, and Josie’s faith and self-worth just as tenuous, can deepening a friendship into something more ever work? And what happens when Lachlan’s work means he has to return to Australia after Christmas? What’ll it take for two hearts to heal and make a future possible?

A Christian contemporary small town romance series based on the Muskoka region of Ontario, Canada MUSKOKA ROMANCE SERIES A sweet & swoony Christian contemporary romance series, set in the beautiful Muskoka region of Canada As a redhead and an Anne of Green Gables fan I was thrilled to visit Prince Edward Island and then drive across Canada to Muskoka, a picturesque, lake-filled stretch of country two hours north of Toronto, which is where LM Montgomery set her book The Blue Castle . (Muskoka IS Mistawis!) Visiting this beautiful part of the world became inspiration for a story about another hockey player (because: Canada, hello!), which became Muskoka Blue . Because I loved this Muskoka region so much, I decided to write several other books set in this region, using the same small town and community church we see in Muskoka Blue. So welcome to Muskoka Shores, a beautiful close knit community on the shores of Lake Muskoka, Canada. Come and meet your new best friends as they negotiate romance, faith and life in small town North America. Click on the book covers to find out more, and check out the photo gallery below for some of the behind-the-scenes inspiration from my trip to North America that inspired scenes in various books (and the Spotify playlists and Pinterest boards as well). Happy reading! For Sarah Maguire, spending the summer at Lake Muskoka was supposed to be about finding the courage to put back the pieces of her shattered life—not falling in love with the charming yet unsophisticated hockey player from next door. Daniel Walton may have been praying for Miss Right to appear, but Sarah’s ice princess act just cries Miss Wrong. Dan’s summer plans hadn’t included befriending a redhead with a sassy tongue and cute accent, but as Muskoka works its magic he soon discovers that underneath the frost and prickles is the funny, feisty, loving woman he’s waited all his life to meet. Will past regrets lead to further heartbreak? Or can Sarah and Dan learn to leave the past in the past and embrace God’s promises for the future?

Joel Wakefield is looking forward to a fresh start for himself and his sister in this beautiful small town beside Lake Muskoka.

Dr. James Wells is on enforced leave from working in Africa, after nearly burning out.

And between his crazy working hours and the fact she's now settled two hours away in beautiful Muskoka it seems they never have any time together.

He hadn’t counted on meeting a forthright young lady whose courage made headlines around the world. But as he gets to know her he’s tempted to stay, which just might prove dangerous for his agent’s peace of mind, and for Linc’s own heart.

And after the death of his fiancée, Tom has his own challenges in learning to risk his heart again. And then there is the matter of whether Anna will ever reconcile with her too-persistent friends... Join Anna and Tom as they discover the path to real love holds unexpected joys and trials, and that God's promises can always be relied on - including in beautiful Muskoka. Now Available Buy Amazon Buy other retailers Sarah Walton might now be living out her dreams with her gorgeous husband and writing and recording music and touring with a globally famous Christian music group, but time spent in Muskoka is a slice of paradise, the perfect escape from that crazy busy world. She has so much to be thankful for... except there's just one thing. Dan Walton knows he is blessed, but can't stop a niggling desire for something to change. Is it wrong to want more? Or should he just let go of his secret wish--one he can't share with his wife? When tragedy strikes, the lessons learned in Muskoka several years ago are put to the test again, as the struggle to trust God proves only too real, putting strain on a relationship already tested by busyness and health challenges. Then, when family circumstances lead to a separation on the opposite side of the world, the depth of their love for God and each other forces them to face the fire once more.
