Stay local
Aquila is just outside Salisbury - so you're close enough to pop into town, but tucked away enough to feel like you've properly left it behind.
Salisbury itself
- Salisbury Cathedral – one of the finest Gothic cathedrals in England, with the tallest spire in the country and an original copy of the Magna Carta in the Chapter House.
- Cathedral Close – the wide green around the cathedral, lined with historic buildings including Mompesson House (National Trust) and Arundells.
- Salisbury Museum – right on the Close, covers local history including finds from Stonehenge.
- Harnham Water Meadows – a lovely riverside walk with the classic view of the cathedral that inspired Constable's paintings.
Nearby
- Stonehenge – about 20–25 minutes' drive north, one of the world's most famous prehistoric sites.
- Old Sarum – the original, now-ruined settlement of Salisbury, an Iron Age hillfort just outside the city.
- Wilton House – a grand stately home and gardens a few miles west, seat of the Earls of Pembroke.
- Longford Castle – striking triangular castle with fine art collection, just south of the city.
