Once home to Lady Fanny Nelson, who is known to have spent considerable time in Bath, especially after her marriage to Horatio Nelson began to deteriorate due to his affair with Emma Hamilton. Bath was a popular retreat for naval families and the gentry, offering healing waters, social opportunities, and a respite from London’s bustle. Historical accounts confirm that Fanny rented or stayed at 17 New King Street in Bath from approximately 1794 to 1798, during a period when Nelson was often at sea or between commands. This residence is noted in sources like *The Nelson Society* publications and Bath’s historical records, such as the *Nelson Trail* guide. After Nelson’s affair with Emma became public and their marriage effectively ended in 1800–1801, Fanny continued to visit Bath, often caring for Nelson’s father, Reverend Edmund Nelson, who wintered there to escape Norfolk’s harsh climate. She remained in Bath intermittently until at least 1802, when Edmund died, and even afterward, as she learned of Nelson’s death at Trafalgar in 1805 while in the city. New King Street, a Georgian terrace near the city center, was a practical and respectable address for someone of her status—a naval officer’s wife maintaining her dignity amid personal turmoil. This first-floor apartment offers a unique blend of history and comfort, making it an ideal base for those wanting to explore the beauty of Bath. ...
