If you saw Chevy Chase's masterpiece European Vacation, you'll recognize Stonehenge's massive formation. (As a citizen of the world, you should recognize Stonehenge anyway.) The prehistoric stone circle is eight miles from Salisbury, and its visitors provide a boost to the local economy. With a history dating back over 5,000 years, there is no shortage of significant places to visit in and around Salisbury. On the "must see" list are Salisbury Cathedral, Longleat and Stourhead gardens (and Stonehenge, of course).

Having two granddaughters who are animal mad, I took them to the farm. Lovely walking routes take you through the various areas beside the river. They were enamoured of the calves and sheep but especially liked the animals they could feed, the donkeys, goats etc. Plenty of interesting information about the animals and places to wash hands.

Probably the best sewing and knitting shop in the area!! We stock a huge range of fabric and yarns as well as haberdashery, craft and all manner of needle craft items. Sewing machine sales and repairs and classes and workshop on offer all year round.
This shop has an excellent range of sewing and embroidery machines, over lockers and coverstitch machines. The staff are highly knowledgeable about the products they sell and try and help you make the right purchase for you. They do not pressure you at all, which I love. They provide an opportunity for you to really understand any machine you buy. If you just want to buy some quilting fabrics, cottons or kits and maybe some wool too; they will help you with that.
