There's plenty to keep you occupied on a day trip to Bath. You might well take in a visit to the Assembly Rooms and its Museum of Costume. But if your visit coincides with certain Sunday afternoons, you have the opportunity to dance in the sumptuous Georgian surroundings of the Ballroom.

In the 18th century the Assembly Rooms would have been packed with guests dancing, playing cards, tea drinking, talking and flirting. Today, at the monthly dances both experienced and novice dancers can waltz and quickstep around the Ballroom to a live band. Afternoon tea and refreshments are available.

This may be the most atmospheric dance venue in England. The next dances are on 13th September and 11th October.

I think it's a regular (the third Friday of every month?) club night that is as unpretentious as it comes and raises money for various causes each month. July was for Computers for Palestine. e had a great time dancing to funky house, reggae and a whole mix of other stuff. The people were great.
