The South West has a great diversity of events, that cross all social boundaries and with lots of beaches and beautiful countryside alot of people focus on these.

The South West of England also has a strong antiques trade and one of the biggest antiques fairs is held at The Royal Bath & West Showground with over 600 stalls wth 4 halls and a large outside area (weather permitting) there really is something for everyone.

It really is worth a visit even if just for a day out and browse at all the great bits and pieces on sale, and yes you can find stuff for any pocket, i picked up a lovely French Pyrex 1940’s tea set for just three pounds and was very interested in a lovely piece of art work until i saw the price – £1,000, a bit too much of me.

We browsed the outside fields first as these have a large collection of traders selling just about anything you can think of, a 1950’s hat stand caught my eye as did a lovely art deco lamp, inside their are 4 halls to browse and ample catering facilities to make a day of it.
