We will be staying near the western edge of the county\, giving us the opportunity to also tour the northeast part of Somerset.  \n\n\n\nProposed Itinerary   \n\n\n\nFriday 3 October  \n\n\n\nAfter meeting for breakfast\, a scenic route will take us to our hotel south of Bradford-on-Avon\, near Bath. Before arriving at the hotel\, we have arranged a visit to a diner located in a supercar storage barn for a light lunch/afternoon tea. We will then stay for two nights at the Widbrook Grange Hotel\,  part of which was originally a Georgian farmhouse and now has a heated indoor swimming pool and gym.
