Where to stay in Odd Down
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
Wellsway is the street to know. Odd Down's listed addresses gather along it and around it, Hatfield House, Bloomfield House, Westfield House, Tower House and Sladebrook House among them, but the ward runs to housing rather than hotel frontage and the beds are down in Bath itself. The ward sits west and south of the centre.
Anyone booking Bath and wanting the Wansdyke on a morning walk can reach it from this side of the city.
