Spot some of the animals made famous by the BBC’s Animal Park in the Safari Park, let off steam in the Adventure Playground and enjoy the year-round special events.

Feed and stroke an array of animals at Cholderton Rare Breeds Farm or River Bourne Community Farm. Spot magnificent butterflies at Studley Grange Butterfly World & Craft Village meet various animals at the Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens or step aboard a locomotive at STEAM – Museum of the Great Western Railway.

Practice being a knight or a princess and learn about times gone by at one of English Heritage’s Old Sarum and Old Wardour Castle events that take place throughout the year or hop onto the Stonehenge Tour Bus for a fascinating insight into Stonehenge.

Visit Bowood House & Gardens with its fantastic adventure playground featuring a pirates’ ship or Wilton House with its adventure playground with tree top slides, swing boats and beautiful parklands to explore.

Play around the Crazy Golf course as you discover a range of the county's famous landmarks, including Stonehenge & White Horses! Make sure to have a go at the new disc golf, one of the UK's fastest-growing sports. This is the perfect location for a fun outing with friends & family, birthday parties, and more.
