Such a beautiful street. The architecture is stunning and the grassy area with trees in the centre gives a rural feel to the whole place. Much nicer than the Crescent in my opinion.

Tip 1: This is the real thing to see when you come to Bath, not the Roman Bath Museum! The architecture is amazing! We also noticed one of the apartments with sealed window. According to the old ancient English ruling, the more windows you installed in your flat, the more tax you will have to pay. The particular flat we... More

Can't believe there are 6 levels in some of the houses. Amazing architecture. Lovely sculptures on the front of the buildings. Well worth a visit. Easy to walk up from the town centre.

Every travel brochure you read about Bath has The Circus as a "must see" . Well now I've seen it and it is charming , with the beautiful architecture and central parkland. Just a pity all of the cars parked out front spoilt the vista

Another place that you have to visit when in Bath. Nice to take photos and marvel at the Georgian architecture, but nothing much else.

The Circus is a must to see, you feel as if you've been transported back in time. Easy to find and not much of a walk up from the centre of Bath.

Nothing much to see other than the shape of the buildings there...no facility around. We were totally disappointed. Waste of time..was as good as the picture.
