Lovely spot for a peaceful walk just outside the busy centre of Bath. Sydney Gardens has beautiful green space, a bit of history, and a relaxing atmosphere - perfect for a quiet break, walking your dog, watching the trains pass under the age old foot bridge and it even has a superb children’s play ground. It is adjacent to the Holburne Museum and Cafe.

Walk along the canal if you fancy a long walk. Then when you get tired turn back. There's lots of interesting folk on their river boats. And the scenery is beautiful

Located behind the holburne museum, the garden has SWATHS of green and trees and gorgeous canals populated by ducks and swans. There are also a million dandelions scattered everywhere and a certain Jane Austen-esque vibe to the whole place.

Beautiful gardens in Bath. With the Holborn museum at one end, and the Avon canal at the other. There are some interesting art sculptures and buildings. Although not huge, still a nice place to walk round or sit and enjoy the quiet.. There is a toilet block and kids play area at one side too.
