Location and what's nearby

Harnham Rd, Salisbury SP2 8JQ

A verdant city with a Gothic cathedral at its heart, Salisbury is a place that stands out – it's no wonder Lonely Planet named it one of the world's top 10 cities to visit in 2015. Stock up on fresh farmers' produce at its outdoor Charter Market, take a romantic stroll along the River Avon, soak up the history at Mompesson House, and don't miss a chance to see the famous Magna Carta.

Sights worth seeing as you wander the city's old streets include the stately Wilton House, the Old Sarum Iron Age fort, the Salisbury Museum and, of course, wandering along the cathedral's cloisters. Those looking to get away for an afternoon can take a 25-minute drive North to Stonehenge, or even make a day trip out of a visit to Bath, just over an hour's drive away.
