Bath, the historic capital of the United Kingdom, is only seven miles from the charming Wiltshire market town of Corsham. Poldark and The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher are just two of the many television shows and movies that have been filmed in the town’s numerous limestone structures, many of which have been used as film sets. The remarkable art collection at Corsham Court or the picturesque grounds built by Capability Brown are both worth a trip to the nearby town of Corsham.
The city of Bath is a lovely place to visit, with a wide range of attractions, from the Georgian terraces to the Roman Baths and the abbey, all within easy reach. You have a plethora of options for anything from fine dining to shopping therapy. To get a different perspective, take a short drive to the 13th century village of Lacock or to Castle Combe, which was once voted England’s most beautiful village. At any time of year, Corsham provides a delightful, historic base from which to explore this area’s diverse landscape.
