my girls talked 'fairys' & princes / princesses much of the time we were there // fun that way ;)
though my youngest won't remember much (shes 5) some impressions will remain i hope ...

+yes we only saw really three rain days & only one of those we should have stayed indoors ;) but we did our magic & bought an umbrella & the weather cleared ...

no -never quite got to the renting the punt
watched enough collisions though ;)
only an afternoon in Bath
seemed to be very $$ ..
driving on the left was an interesting experience as well as the roads (put 1200km on the rental the last week we were there...)

Sounds like a lot of fun, yes bath is expensive I read once that it is on average the most expensive city in terms of hotels. We spent an afternoon there but I think is my favorite spot so far, planning to return.

If you can share your itinerary it will be very appreciated I would like to make a driving trip as well. We did it once but missed some of the places you visited.
