The house address is 14 Newbridge Road, Bath, BA1 3JX.

If you are arriving by train at Bath Parkway, you can catch a bus from the central Bus Station, which is right next to the train station, to a stop very close to the house. There are several services that stop near the house (including the 4, U5, U6, 9, 19A 39 and x39). The bus stop for the house is The Weston pub stop.

IMPORTANT: The number 4 bus runs on two different loops, one to the north of the river out to Weston, and one to the south out to Odd Down. The correct bus is the WESTON bus. You catch this from the bus bays BEHIND the bus station, in the area outlined in green on the Google Maps screencap behind the cut below. There is also a bus stop with the same route number at the front of the bus station, outlined in red. This is the WRONG BUS and will take you to Odd Down (ask us now we found this out).
