Traveler reviews
Andrew Thomas
★★★★★Edited a year agoBeautifully maintained little garden with attractive ornamental flowerbeds surrounding a stone centerpiece. The gardens have been rich with colour when I've visited in autumn and spring. There are views through the trees of the famous Royal Crescent which is located nearby.
Natali Gracia
★★★★★3 years agoAs a UNESCO (The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) World Heritage Site, the city of Bath is a time capsule from multiple eras. From Medieval, Georgian, Victorian, 20th Century, to new and future developments, the city is gorgeous and has historical significance in every step and stone. This particular garden is dedicated, in memory of and a nod to 11 year old Princess Victoria who opened the Royal Victoria Park in 1830.
