YOUR LOCAL HOLIDAY GUIDE
Things to do in Wiltshire
Stonehenge
Make Stonehenge a planned attraction visit rather than an assumed roadside stop. Check the current ticket and transport arrangements for the site, and allow time for its wider visitor experience.
Avebury
Avebury’s stone-circle landscape offers a different prehistoric outing, with the village woven into the visit. Follow site guidance, respect grazing land and choose a route suited to your group.
Salisbury
The cathedral city offers historic streets, museums and riverside spaces. Pick one indoor attraction and leave time for the centre, particularly if you are balancing a city day with several outdoor excursions.
Local shops, food & places to browse
Salisbury’s market area and independent streets provide food shopping and browsing. Marlborough and Bradford-on-Avon offer smaller alternatives on different sides of the county.
Planning your holiday in Wiltshire
Salisbury Plain includes military land: use marked public routes and observe all access notices. Check travel times between prehistoric sites instead of assuming they form one short circuit.
Choosing where to stay
A Salisbury-area base favours the southern sights; northern or western locations may suit Avebury and the smaller towns better.
Before you book, check the advert’s address, sleeping arrangements, park facilities and any extra charges with the owner. Use the search filters for features such as decking, a hot tub or a washing machine, and park facilities such as a pool or clubhouse.
