Location

Bath is in Southwestern England near Bristol. There are few cities that can match Bath for historical interest – it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, particularly for its famous Roman “baths” (natural hot springs which gave the city its name). As well as being one of the most interesting, elegant and sophisticated cities in the UK, it is a spectacularly beautiful city, which stands on the picturesque River Avon. There is a wonderful selection of top-quality restaurants and historic old pubs, plus a good variety of hotels. The city is surrounded by delightful rural countryside and has excellent transportation links. London is only an hour and a half away by fast and frequent train and it is close to the M4 and M5 Motorways. You can fly from Thailand on KLM via Amsterdam to Bristol Airport and take a taxi direct to Bath, or you can fly to London Heathrow Airport and take either the National Express coach direct to Bath or take the Heathrow Express train to London Paddington and then train direct to Bath. The University campus was completely purpose-built on a green area above the gorgeous city and there is a regular bus service between the two.

Facilities

In the past few years Bath has invested heavily in new facilities and accommodation. The superb Library and Learning Centre, in the heart of the campus, is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week during semesters and boasts state-of-the-art computer services. There is a variety of restaurants and cafes on campus, plus a food shop (including an Oriental shop) and a general convenience store, plus various bars which will show all the top sports. There are 3 banks on campus (Barclays, NatWest & Santander), with branches of HSBC in the city. The English Sports Village (currently being used as a training centre for the 2012 London Olympics) was opened in 2004 and has excellent fitness facilities, including a 50-metre swimming pool, gymnasiums and outdoor facilities, plus a new indoor sports complex and more multi-purpose sports courts for indoor athletics and tennis.

Accomodation And Welfare
The online application process for University residences is now very quick and easy. All new, single, first-year students are guaranteed a University room (subject to a deadline of 31st July 2012). There is a wide range of very modern self-catering on-campus accommodation, plus many University properties in the city - many students actually prefer to have accommodation in the lovely city (and then either walk or take the bus to the campus – buses run to 03.00 am!!). Off-campus properties popular with Thai students are Thornbank and Cleveland, which are both near to bus stops. The University is particularly good for its care services. The Medical and Dental Centre offers 24-hour cover. There is a good counselling service with confidential help available, plus a careers advisory service. Bath takes its sport very seriously, with outstanding facilities, such as the Human Performance and Fitness Centre.
