Great Western Railway: Bath Spa to London Paddington trains

The distance between Bath Spa and London Paddington is around 94 miles, meaning that it takes just over one hour and a half to get there by Great Western Railway.

As you head east from Bath, you’ll pass through the idyllic Somerset countryside, which resembles scenery from the set of The Lord of the Rings films, rather than actual places. Medieval and Tudor houses, quaint villages, and bustling market towns glide past on your way to bustling, busy London. The difference between the two places is a welcome contrast.

Great Western Railway runs services to the West of England and South Wales, as well as inter-city trains to West London and the Thames Valley. It also operates a sleeper service between London and Penzance on the Cornish coast.

Departing from Bath Spa

Bath Spa train station is on Dorchester Street, on the bend of the River Avon, which runs through the city of Bath. It is a beautifully designed station that complements the city’s Georgian, Palladian, and neoclassical architecture.

The station is easily accessible by bus and taxi, has a bicycle storage facility, and has a small car park. However, you’ll need to be there early to reserve a spot.

Main stops

There is only one main stop between Bath Spa and London Paddington. This is at Reading.
