Luxury self-catering accommodation in Wiltshire
Green rolling hills, bracing country walks and beautiful farmhouses for weekend rentals; Wiltshire is perfect for a relaxing break with the beautiful cities of Bath and Salisbury to entertain guests.
From a private country house with sweeping hills on the doorstep, to ancient landscapes and historic architecture to explore in the nearby towns, Wiltshire is a great base for large gatherings or quiet couple retreats. Book a luxury guest house and head to the races at Cheltenham, Bath or Wincanton (don't forget your hat). A townhouse in Bath is a good base for a girls' weekend; hit the shops and museums, order a special bun – sweet or savoury – at Sally Lunn's Historic Eating House, then relax at Thermae Bath Spa with a spot of proper pampering.
At Salisbury, the cathedral has the tallest spire in Britain; channel your inner druid and take a tour of nearby Stonehenge, the famous Neolithic standing stones. Treat the family to a self-catering country house and fill the kitchen with local produce from Salisbury's well-stocked Charter Market; bundle it all up into a picnic and head to Cranborne Chase, 380 square miles of gorgeous scenery just to the west of Salisbury. While out and about, children and adults will enjoy trying to spot one of Wiltshire's eight iconic white horses carved into its hillsides.
