Olympic swimming stars Siobhan-Marie O'Connor and Chris Walker-Hebborn have found a Georgian gem to rent in Bath.

O'Connor scooped six medals at the 2014 Commonwealth Games and became the first British woman to win an Olympic medal in the 200-metre medley, while Walker-Hebborn represented Britain in the summer Olympics of both 2012 and 2016.
