Physical access Flooring No. 1 Royal Crescent is an historic building. Some of the floors are uneven. The flooring in the Basement and the Courtyard is flagstones. The Back Stairs are very steep and narrow. Outside the Gentleman’s Retreat there is glass flooring to showcase an original staircase below, this is on the main route but can be avoided by walking back through the Parlour to the Grand Staircase. Step free access The Museum is divided into two areas, No. 1 Royal Crescent (the historic house) and 1a, the domestic wing next door. There are two routes around the museum, one of which is step free. The step free route gives access to the ground and basement floors of the main house museum and the ground and first floors of the domestic wing. This route gives step free access, via an accessible lift, to following museum spaces: the Dining room the Parlour the Gentleman’s Retreat the Housekeeper’s Room the Servants’ Hall the circulatory spaces, both above and below stairs the Shop the Andrew Brownsword Gallery (temporary exhibitions and holiday activities are regularly held here). Unfortunately it does mean missing 4 rooms of the museum: the Kitchen the Gentleman’s Bedroom the Ladies Bedroom the Withdrawing Room Multimedia Guides A virtual iPad tour of these rooms is available to borrow from the ticket desk, when borrowing this, we will ask you to provide a credit card for security.

View group prices Book your group visit Sensitive Material The ‘Georgians at Home’ experience features stories relating to the Transatlantic Slave Trade as the source of much of the wealth in Georgian Bath. This content is told within the context of the 18th century narrative rather than from our contemporary viewpoint today, so some people visiting the museum may find this upsetting. Staff will support anyone wanting to pause their visit.
