For those staying in the City to enjoy the sights, the ideal solution to where to stay is to find a place in keeping with the Jane Austen legacy, 8 minutes walk from the centre but away from the noise and bustle of the shops. Where better then after a round of sightseeing than the very street Jane Austen herself resided when she lived in Bath, where better than the Orangery of the house that Queen Charlotte stayed when she lived in Bath in 1817, where better than Queen Charlotte's Orangery where the house rubs shoulders with the Holbourne Museum and the University Campus
