Elton House
Reviews:
- Leslie Patterson: Even though Jane Austen hated Bath, this house was so Georgian that I
felt I might bump into her around any corner. Children (and adults)
will
love peaking their heads out of every one of its many windows. The
house is located only a few steps from the Abbey, the Roman Bath, and
the Pump Room. Being close enough to the Abbey to hear evensong is
fantastic, and during our stay in October the pub next door (The
Crystal
Palace) was not at all noisy. Avoid Sally Lunn's for food, but check
out Tilley's. Be sure to read the Landmark information on the lady
responsible for preserving the house--Philippa Savery. Her obituary
in
the Times made her seem like an inspiration and an eccentric.
