High on the southern hills, Combe Down offers a greener, more spacious pace of life — with Bath stone cottages (the very stone that built the city was quarried here), open countryside and the National Trust's Bath Skyline walk on the doorstep.
You'll find everything from characterful cottages to substantial detached family homes, many with generous gardens and parking that's hard to come by in the centre.
