Prior Park offers great views over Bath and in winter more can be seen, as the trees lose their leaves.
We’ve had snow the past few years and it transforms the garden – the grass is carpeted in white and the evergreen trees stand out against the snow.
We always try to open at weekends when the snow is lying – as it’s the perfect time to enjoy a bracing walk.
Look out for Prior Park in the Reader’s Snapshot page of our spring issue, out next month.
