Sitting on the River Avon in England’s picturesque south-west, Bristol is a thriving commercial city that attracts visitors, and settlers, from far and wide. As a successful inland port, it became host in the 19th century to some magnificent Victorian engineering, namely the Clifton Suspension Bridge, and, more recently, to the development of the prosperous aerospace industry. With its leafy Georgian areas, attractive hilly layout and meandering waterways, this is a great place to base yourself to explore the rolling West Country and make the most of the infinite leisure opportunities available. And by night you’re simply spoilt for choice: the city’s huge university population will no doubt agree that Bristol’s clubs, bars and venues are second to none and well worth a visit in themselves.
