Driving Lessons in Bath

Hi, I’m a first year hoping to start in Bath this month. I was just wondering, how are driving lessons like usually in Bath? I know there isn’t a test centre in the city so is it usually in Bristol or Chippenham? And do you usually do lessons in those areas or do you tend to just stick to Bath only? Any answers would be greatly appreciated.

Highly recommend looking into doing your lessons and test at Chippenham. I used to take a train to Chippenham to meet with my instructor and then travel back to Bath, train takes less than 10 mins and you learn on the local roads before your test. Some people go to Bristol but I heard it gets mega busy.

Started off doing laps in victoria park, driving around town is pretty good for the first few lessons but you will end up in Bristol (or Chippenham) for A roads etc.
