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).

Set in the glorious Wiltshire countryside close to the medieval City of Salisbury, both of the downland courses offer magnificent views for miles around. The testing Cathedral 18 hole layout has been in play since 1991 carefully combining holes from the Old course and new ones built in 1989, and the easier going Bibury 9 hole from the early 1900s.

Ever since I can remember I have loved birds. When I was little, my mum would take me to feed the swans at the local duck pond and, in the wilderness of the back garden, me and my nan would sit and watch the robins jump down to the feeders. Since then, I have worked in bird centres and zoos around the UK, absorbing every piece of knowledge I could to help me achieve my dream. Today I am lucky enough to spend every day sharing my passion with the people who visit me and the birds at RiverBourne.

Our 14 Bay undercover Driving Range complete with Toptracer technology is the perfect venue to visit whist in Salisbury. The facility is open to everyone, with or without any golf experience and with each bay equipped with a Toptracer screen that tracks every shot you hit, why not try out the Longest Drive & Nearest the Pin Challenges or maybe play a few holes around St Andrews! Each bay can take 4 people, golf clubs can be supplied and we have instructors on site to assist you if required. Inside we have an open plan Coffee Shop and Lounge Bar, serving Costa Coffee, homemade cakes, hot and cold snack as well as a variety of beers and ales. Seating is available in the main lounge, conservatory or outside in the garden. Salisbury Golf Centre is situated between the stunning Cathedral City and the picturesque village of Wilton. Easy access, lots of parking and the warmest of welcomes await you.
Highly recommended for non-golfers who want to have a fun day out and made even better by the top tracer technology that tracks your progress on the range. With the added technology it helped a novice like me build upon my skills by giving accurate insights into my swings. The golf centre itself was very welcoming, with some great spaces to sit and hang out after our session. The owners and staff were incredibly helpful, making sure we had what we needed and were on hand to answer any questions.

We parked near the Old Mill and walked along the Town Path with the meadows on either side. It was fascinating to read the notice board about how and why the meadows were created and lovely that they are still being maintained. It really did give a feel of England 200 years ago, especially with the views of the cathedral.

The warmest of welcomes awaits you at this classic and rare down-land golfing experience, with arguably the finest and quickest greens in the south. Described by 'Golf Monthly' as a "hidden gem," the 6305 yards par-70, 18-hole course with 72 bunkers at High Post has, over the years, received many complimentary remarks. Reputed as one of the finest venues in the country, perhaps the highest praise
A great course near Salisbury to play. Visitors are made welcome on the course and in the club house which serves good plain food. The course is playable all year only snow stops play. Society are made welcome all abilities will enjoy a round at Highpost. If you are in need of a place to stay just across the road is the Stones Hotel which is newly refurbished.
