How Baby-Friendly is The Roman Baths?

63%Baby-Friendly
View Map

What makes it 63% Baby-Friendly: Under-2s enter free and there are baby-change rooms and carrier loans, but pushchairs are barred and many stairs mean parents must carry the infant throughout, with no baby-focused activities.

Wonderful place to visit. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The museum is accessible, they have lifts throughout making it easy to enjoy. They have a free audio tour which has two options, one more adult orientated "documentary" style audio guides and one more child friendly character based audio tour.

I highly recommend the audio guide, it was very good and informative. Inside, everything is very in...

The entire museum was very much interactive and very accessible for one of our mem...

Walking around the Great Bath, with the steam rising from the water, really gives you a sense of what life was like here 2,000 years ago. The museum is well laid out, with fascinating artefacts and clear explanations, and...
