7 Traveler Resources in Bristol That You Shouldn't Miss

May 10, 2022 Moriah Teneyck

Bristol is a quirky British city with beautiful hilly vistas and plenty of historic sights to explore. Anyone interested in ships will have a blast aboard Brunel’s SS Great Britain, the world’s first great oceanliner, and the Matthew, a replica of the ship upon which John Cabot sailed to America in the 15th century. The graceful Clifton Suspension Bridge is another must-see.

20th Century Flicks

We are the longest running video rental store in the world and have over 20,000 films to hire on bluray, laserdisc, dvd and vhs. We also have 2 small but beautiful air-conditioned cinemas to watch them in with your friends. BYO drinks and food. It's an Aladdin's Cave of film!

We had a great time and are planning to go back. We hired the Videodrome (the bigger of the 2 private cinemas) and it's such an amazing venue! We had a lot of fun and the people running it are very friendly. Highly recommended!

Clifton Suspension Bridge Visitor Centre

Find out about the competition to design the bridge, learn about the project which established Brunel as one of the greatest British engineers, and find out how we maintain the working historic structure today.

Reviewed By AvidtravPerth - Prades, France

We were attracted to the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol through its engineering feat. We were very impressed with the scale of the bridge and th design, and even more so when we visited the Visitor Centre. There was an excellent interpretation of the design, the challenges and the outcome of the characters and bridge itself. Definitely worth the visit and there are great staff in attendance as well.
