OUR TOP TIPS

 

Pick up the official market map

• Stall clusters

• Toilets

Bath’s layout is compact but winding — a map helps passengers plan their time.

 

Prioritise the artisan stalls

Bath is known for its local makers, not mass produced goods. Look for:

• Bespoke decorations

These make perfect gifts and support small businesses.

 

Explore the side streets

The market spills into:
