Map of Bristol, the Bristol Channel & Surrounding Towns & Cities

Bristol is home to one of the UK’S Dental Schools and is a keen provider or postgraduate education for the profession. Outside of clinical activities, Bristol has become one of the UK’S most vibrant cities given the large amount of recent reinvestment into the city. It also lends itself to high energy as a direct result of having a large student population.

Bristol is split into 35 wards, each with differing subcultures and population groups. One of the more affluent districts is Clifton, located near Bristol City Centre. Clifton boasts some of the city’s more unique and independant venues, including the more traditional cider public houses, such as the Coronation Tap. It is also home to the world famous Clifton Suspension Bridge.

The city is also well know in the art community throughout the world and the UK, and is home to the infamous ‘Banksy‘, the graffiti artist.

Bristol is served by both the M4 & M5 motorways, making easy access to the coast, West Midlands, and of course London. Weston-Super-Mare is a well used local coastal resort, which is only 18 miles away. For those interested in one of the most beautiful towns in the country, then Bath, is only 13 miles away.

The history of bath, and the unique architecture is breathtaking. Truly inspirational.
