You don’t need to go far to have an adventure, especially not now. If your idea of adventure, or your budget for adventure, are a little more UK than universal, then our beautiful land of Great Britain has a lot to explore. Spending 24 hours in Bristol is a great way to have a getaway, without going too far. 

Bristol is a coastal city, on the west of GB, towards Wales. Outside of London, Bristol is known as one of the most desirable places for the young and trendy to live, but with 24 hours in Bristol, you don’t need to worry about those house prices. We’re here to have fun! 

I love a good day out in England – check out my guides to Brighton, Southsea and Birmingham for example. 

But for now, here’s how I think you should spend your 24 hours in Bristol. Activities, food, shopping, and a place to stay all included.
