I’m sure this must be covered elsewhere here, but what is the best process for getting from Heathrow ( terminal 4) to Bath? Into London via Express or Elizabeth line then back out or to Reading ( bus?) from Heathrow and then train to Bath or something else altogether?

It depends what you consider "best" and arrival time. But National Express run several direct coach services each day from Heathrow to central Bath. You'll likely need to go from T4 to the pick-up point, but afterwards you just sit on the coach without any need to change bus/trains or any of that annoyance.

We used the National Express coach back in 2017...very easy. Reserve ahead.

The best (and easiest) way is a private car service. Yes, it will cost a bit, but after a long hour flight, being sleepy, jet lagged, and on unfamilar turf, nothing is better than having a driver meet you and wisk you to the hotel.
We used a private car service based in Bath to go from there to the Bristol airport and were very pleased. I don't remember the cost (and it's closer than Heathrow) but it was reasonable. The service we used was Chauffeur Travel, and the web site is https://chauffeurtravel.co.uk/
Check it out and see if it will work for you.
