Discover the Tranquil
Beauty of Wiltshire
An idyllic retreat from the urban hustle
Escape the ordinary and embrace the serenity of
Wiltshire. Here, amidst ever-changing landscapes
and expansive skies, you’ll feel a profound
connection not only to the earth but to the
essence of time itself.
Wiltshire embodies rural England at its pinnacle, with nearly
half of its terrain designated as a National Landscape.
Traverse the Cotswolds, where dry stone walls, narrow
winding lanes, and honey-coloured villages seamlessly blend
into rolling hills. Explore Cranborne Chase and the West
Wiltshire Downs, a vast undulating expanse in the southern
reaches of the county. Delight in the North Wessex Downs
and the Vale of Pewsey, where lush meadows and austere
uplands converge in a nationally protected landscape.
Engage in the ongoing debate about crop circles at the Crop
Circle Exhibition and Information Centre in Honeystreet.
Ancient woodlands grace the edges of the New
Forest National Park and Savernake Forest, while
the untamed Salisbury Plain stands as a vast
plateau, home to rare and endangered species
thriving in its sparsely populated expanse.
Whether on foot, bicycle, or by car, Wiltshire offers miles
of ancient drove roads and peaceful country lanes for
effortless exploration. Stumble upon charming hamlets
nestled amid unspoiled countryside, including Castle
