Salisbury & Stonehenge

Superbly situated in southern England's rural heartland, few destinations can match the amazing diversity of Salisbury and Stonehenge - with a history dating back over 5,000 years there is no shortage of places to visit, all conveniently located within an hour or so's drive of each other.

On the 'must see' list are the World Heritage site of Stonehenge, Salisbury Cathedral, Longleat and Stourhead gardens. But we also have a wide range of less well known but equally lovely stately homes, beautiful gardens, lively farm parks and award-winning museums you definitely won't want to miss.

Salisbury has plenty of characterful places to stay - some dating back to the 13th century - and a wide range of pubs, restaurants and tea rooms. A choice of arts and culture venues complement individual shops and regular street markets, and outside the city you will find charming country towns and villages with plenty of opportunities for great walking and cycling.

To cap it all, Salisbury is easily accessible with good road and rail links, making it the perfect choice for a great day out , a relaxing city break, or a refreshing countryside holiday.
