Set in the peaceful Wiltshire countryside beside a lake, Old Wardour Castle, near Tisbury was once one of the most daring and innovative homes in Britain. It was built in the 14th century as a lightly fortified luxury residence for comfortable living and lavish entertainment. Today the castle ruin provides a relaxed, romantic day out for couples, families and budding historians alike.
Hidden away along some very narrow country roads, this is a lovely place for an afternoon out. Take a picnic if the weather’s good, lovely spot to sit and plenty of running space to wear the kids out. A good climbing castle with the required narrow steep winding staircase to the top (there’s quite a bit that’s a lot easier to access!). Lovely views over the lake, well kept grounds as always with English Heritage. Definitely worth a visit.

I've been to Messums before; I love the contemporary sculpture outside on the lawn that seamlessly becomes the countryside, the beauty, scale and tranquillity of the ancient barn, and most of the creative contents of the barn and gallery. This weekend I had the pleasure of attending their Festival of the Spoken Word and experienced something altogether different, an unexpectedly invigorating and engaging cultural experience.
