Bristol Mini Guide
Bristol is the largest port in England and this west country city has developed a stature as the second city of the south. There is some stunning countryside in this part of England and having a car is the best way to see it. For instance you can drive to the nearby old Roman town of
Bath which is made up almost exclusively of listed buildings and is splendidly perched on top of a hill. Bristol is near to South Wales and a trip along the M4 will take you over the new Severn Bridge or drive East to
London.
Cardiff is within 40 minutes of Bristol and the Welsh valleys are within an hour, it is little surprise to know that Bristol features highly on many a
UK guide. It has its own airport, Bristol International, which is located about 10 kilometres south west of the city centre which connect to a host of European Cities and domestic flights such as
Edinburgh.
