Ideas For Sunny Days in Wiltshire

If the sun is shining when you visit Wiltshire then we are sure you’ll want to make the most of the weather and get out and about. We’ve put together some suggestions for what to do on sunny days across the county.

Take to the waters

Ok so we may not have a coastline here in Wiltshire however we do have lots of waterways. Perhaps you’d like to soak up the sun in one of our riverside pub gardens? Or how about strolling along the tow path of the Kennet & Avon Canal? You can even hire canoes and kayaks from certain points along the way or join in on a boat cruise.

In the north of the county at the Cotswold Water Park try your hand at boating, hiring a pedalo or some more adventurous water sports. There’s even a lakeside beach!

Go on an adventure with Wiltshire Outdoor Learning Team, and explore the Wiltshire waters on a Stand Up Paddle Boarding session. Perfect for a team building activity. 

If you want something a little more tranquil then why not visit one of our hotels with outdoor swimming pools and spas?

Visit one of our parks and gardens

From town parks through to formal gardens – there is a lot of outdoor space for you here in Wiltshire.

Lots of our parks have play areas for children whereas outdoor spaces like the Trowbridge Sensory Garden offer places of tranquillity in busy town centres.

Spot our White Horses

Can you spot all eight of our White Horses? Take time to discover these iconic chalk figures and enjoy walking routes nearby.

Try some homemade ice cream

Visit Rowdey Cow on the outskirts of Devizes for some homemade ice cream – with lots of delicious flavours on offer, a great way to cool down!

Enjoy al fresco dining

From country pubs with gardens through to Michelin star restaurants with outdoor terraces, there’s nothing better than enjoying food outside on a sunny day. Have a read of our blog too for top places to enjoy a picnic in Wiltshire!
