A Wiltshire holiday is the perfect antidote to busy lives and crowded cities. Here you can breathe more easily. Feel unhurried. Relax and slow down. Let Wiltshire put back what the rest of the week takes out.
These days, you’re always on the go. Someone always wants your time. So make time for yourself. Step off the world for a while.
Plan your timeless Wiltshire holiday
Wiltshire has been special for a very long time. The county is rich with timeless places waiting to be discovered. Think prehistoric wonders, Iron Age hillforts and castle ruins.
Marvel at Stonehenge and Avebury. Wander grand historic houses and breathtaking gardens. Trace Roman, Norman and Saxon stories right up to the present day.
Modern attractions add to the appeal too. Enjoy motor and horse racing. Visit the first safari park outside Africa. There really is something for everyone.
Travel the Great West Way
The Great West Way has gone from strength to strength. This touring route runs between London and Bristol. Around a quarter of it passes through Wiltshire.
It takes you from the world-famous to the yet-to-be-discovered. The roads once carried druids to Stonehenge. Drovers came to market. Pilgrims travelled to Salisbury Cathedral. You’ll find an extraordinary variety of English experiences along the way.
Slow down and savour the county
Take things at a gentler pace. On a narrowboat trip along the Kennet & Avon Canal, there are just three speeds: slow, very slow and stop. No need for speed cameras here.
Local food and drink feature dishes both modern and traditional. The finest home-grown produce shines on every plate. High street stores sit beside specialist retailers and lively markets.
Shoppers can explore one of Europe’s largest covered designer outlets. A popular shopping village adds yet more choice. Picnics in the park come as standard.
Wiltshire is rolling green downs and ancient woodlands. Bustling market towns and picturesque villages. Contemporary luxury too. All this, yet only an hour and a half from London.
So make this the year you pay a visit. There’s always time for Wiltshire.
