ARUNDELLS is a charming and peaceful house with a beautiful garden. It is located within the magnificent Cathedral Close and is the former home of Sir Edward Heath KG MBE, Prime Minister and Statesman. Sir Edward bequeathed Arundells to the Charitable Foundation set up in his name, following his death in 2005. He particularly wanted as many people as possible to “share the beauty of Arundells” and to enjoy his diverse and very personal collection of art work, photographs, sailing memorabilia and political cartoons.

Wilton House has the Inigo Jones Staterooms including the finest surviving 17th century stateroom in England, the Double Cube Room.
Salisbury A remarkable city, very much open to visitors despite the recent problems, set in countryside and so quintessentially English it’s almost too good to be true. It boasts timbered buildings, an early Gothic Cathedral, the Playhouse, City Hall, Salisbury Arts Centre and the Chapter House, with the best preserved of the 1215AD Magna Carta manuscripts. In Cathedral Close there is Arundells (former home of the late Sir Edward Heath), Mompesson House, the Rifles Military Museum and the award- winning Salisbury Museum.
Te city has year-round events and there are interesting shops and markets, including the historic Tuesday and Saturday Charter Markets, and an enticing range of coffee and tea shops, pubs, restaurants, clubs and bars. Salisbury has been awarded a Purple Flag status, the ‘gold standard’ for a great night out.
WARDROBE RIFLES MUSEUM is the home of the infantry regiments of Berkshire and Wiltshire. It has a collection of thirty six thousand objects, wonderful gardens and a shop. The house can be hired for weddings and corporate meetings etc. This is really a venue that should be on every visitors list.
The Winterslows
A peaceful location to stay for visiting the delights of South Wiltshire, or walking the Clarendon Way between Winchester and Salisbury.
Alderbury Its many attractions include a range of pubs and:
Alderbury House - late 18th century, built with materials from the old Salisbury Cathedral’s bell tower.
Whiteparish - a largely wooded parish, on the edge of the New Forest.
Nomansland - the only part of the New Forest National Park in Wiltshire, picturesque with roaming ponies and wildlife near the roads. (Please take care and do not feed the animals).
We hope that you enjoy Wiltshire and will return many times.
