Lansdown

Historically, Lansdown has strong links to Bath’s Georgian expansion, with grand homes built to take advantage of the dramatic vistas and fresh hillside air. The area retains a sense of openness thanks to extensive green spaces, golf courses, and farmland that border the neighbourhood. The famous Lansdown Battlefield and the racecourse add to its character, while nearby trails and bridleways offer excellent walking and cycling routes across the plateau and down into Bath.

Despite its elevated, tranquil position, Lansdown is extremely well connected. Prestigious schools, including Kingswood and Royal High School, are within close reach, and everyday amenities, cafés, pubs, shops, and sports facilities, are found in neighbouring areas such as Weston, Larkhall, and the city centre. Its balance of calm hillside living and convenient access to urban life makes Lansdown a highly sought-after location.
