Known as the Gateway to the West Country, much of Wiltshire has been designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with some of the best inland views to be found in the United Kingdom. But what else does the county have to offer? In no particular order, here are our suggestions for things to do in and attractions in Wiltshire:

Stonehenge, Nr Amesbury

Zoos, gardens and museums
One of the most recognizable sites in the world, Stonehenge really is a must see if you’re anywhere near Wiltshire. It may not be the longest experience you’ll ever have but it will be one of the most memorable. Admission to this amazing structure is £5.20 for adults and £2.50 for children from 9:30 to 6pm every day throughout the entire year. However the site does close a couple of hours earlier during the winter but stays open an hour longer during the summer. One of the best family days out in Wiltshire. For further details call or visit www.englishheritage.org.uk/stonehenge

Longleat, Warminster

Longleat really is one of the best days out not just in Wiltshire but in the entire country. A stunning house full of treasures, beautiful expansive gardens and one of the past safari parks in Europe. It really does have something for everyone. Entry to Longleat is £18 for adults and £14 for children from February through to November. You can choose to pay for the attractions individually but this will invariably cost you more. For further details call 01985 844400 or go to www.longleat.co.uk.

Salisbury Cathedral, Salisbury

One of the greatest cathedrals in the country, Salisbury isn't just another church. Not only does it have the largest spire in England but it also contains the original Magna Carta. Admission is £3.80 for adults and £2 for the children from 7.15am to 6.15pm every day of the week, every week of the year. However, always check to see if there is a service on before you go. For more information call 01722 555120 or go to www.salisburycathedral.org.uk.
