The <strong>Great</strong> <strong>West</strong> <strong>Way</strong> caters to the desires of<br />

all travellers, with its mix of quirky glamping<br />

and camping sites, pretty countryside B&Bs,<br />

cool city hotels, traditional village pubs and<br />

even fancy castles and stately homes<br />

towns, villages and trails of the Vale of Pewsey, or sit<br />

out under the stars around a wood fire with a glass<br />

of farm-grown English wine. There are five luxury<br />

log pods in total, and they are exclusively for adults<br />

(for ages 18 and above), with fantastic views over<br />

the Pewsey Vale, and with the home comforts of a<br />

hot shower and a King Size bed in a double-glazed,<br />

underfloor-heated. There is plenty of choice for<br />

walking, cycling or even kayaking, with many dog<br />

friendly pubs nearby. Come home to your own firepit,<br />

spectacular sunsets and dark skies. There is also an<br />

all-weather shelter and BBQ area.<br />

Troutbeck Guest House<br />

The Red Lion Freehouse and Troutbeck Guest House<br />

at East Chisenbury have gained quite a reputation<br />

for providing the best of Wiltshire's food, drink<br />

and accommodation in a truly beautiful setting.<br />

The thatched pub now holds a Michelin star for<br />

its outstanding food, but has never changed its<br />

relaxed, distinctively 'pubby' atmosphere. If there<br />

were any improvements to be made to the Red<br />

Lion experience, it could only be the addition of a<br />

cozy, classy guest house to go back to after a lovely<br />

meal. In December 2012 the Red Lion opened a<br />

newly converted bungalow to its loyal following – a<br />

gorgeously polished accommodation sat right on the<br />

bank of the River Avon.<br />
