Rather expensive. It's a small building so quick to get around. It is beautiful inside and out! I would say if your in the city you just as well go and tick it off things to do.Full review by Issy R

Hi They recommend a donation and there are volunteers at the front desk who organise this. There is a basket for you to put your donation in but in reality you could either not donate or put a small amount in, depending on your finances. Churches are free to enter and any donation is a voluntary thing. I think that Bath Abbey volunteers are keen to protect their Abbey and have thought about the number of visitors who are drawn to visit and have made suggestions about what amount they feel is appropriate. We gave a donation of £3 for 2 of us on the way in and would have happily donated more on the way out had we felt that we hadn’t offered enough. I hope that’s helpful.
