The historic spa city of Bath is one of the best spots in the UK for delicious local delicacies and staying in Bath holiday homes is a great way to sample all it has to offer. From sweet treats such as Bath buns and Sally Lunn buns, to some of the country's best cheeses and delicious Bath crackers, there is much to enjoy on a cottage holiday here.

The best place to try Sally Lunn buns is the Sally Lunn Historic Eating House & Museum, a site believed to be home to a bakery since Roman times. The light and sweet treats are an ideal accompaniment to a refreshing pot of tea, and the restaurant is open for morning coffee as well as lunch or afternoon tea. Bath Olivers, a dry kind of cracker which is best eaten alongside a platter of local cheeses such as Bath's famous cheddar, is another must-try on a holiday home break in the city and could be delicious with Bath chaps, salty bacon pieces that are an indulgent snack. As well as its food, Bath is known for being home to some of the best Georgian architecture in the country, including the iconic Royal Crescent.

The crescent road hugs a grassy area ideal for relaxing after a day strolling around. Why not pick up a few Bath buns and enjoy an outside picnic with the spectacular Royal road as a backdrop?
