WILTSHIRE<br />

Welcome to timeless!<br />

Nowhere else in England has such a concentration of fascinating iconic sites as Wiltshire.<br />

For thousands of years, travellers have been in awe of their grandeur and magic.<br />

Now there is a new way to explore them and experience that same<br />

sense of wonder for yourself: by following the Great West Way.<br />

In total, this unique new touring route stretches for 125 miles<br />

from London to Bristol. Of which around a quarter runs through<br />

the breathtaking landscape of Wiltshire. Along ancient routes<br />

once used by druids, pilgrims and drovers. Over rolling chalk hills.<br />

Along lush river valleys. Past picturesque towns and villages. Amid<br />

ancient woodland. Designed for self-guided travel, whether solo or<br />

with friends and family, the Great West Way is for<br />

those who enjoy the journey. Who delight in the<br />

smaller, simpler, special things, as well as the<br />

big adventures. Turn to pages 8-11 of this <strong>Guide</strong><br />

to find out more.<br />

Wiltshire is timeless wonders, timeless places, timeless pleasures<br />

and timeless nature. Morning mists curling round Avebury’s<br />

stone circles and shadows in the cloisters at Salisbury Cathedral.<br />

Grand historic houses nestling in ‘Capability’ Brown parkland and<br />

museums bursting with exhibits of national importance. Delicious<br />

local produce sourced from farmers’ markets and authentic<br />

festivals and events. Big skies, undulating downland and Areas of<br />

Outstanding Natural Beauty.<br />

When life’s been moving a bit too fast, pause for a moment. Take a<br />

deep breath. Stop and look around you. Wiltshire has been calming<br />

and inspiring visitors for generations. A weekend (or longer!) here<br />

will help put back what the everyday takes out.<br />

Visit Wiltshire. Discover Timeless. You’ll be here in no time.<br />
