Local Attractions & Activities

Salisbury Cathederal
Be inspired by the peace and beauty of one of Britain's finest medieval cathedrals, Salisbury Cathedral offers a warm welcome to all who visit. Set within eight acres of lawn and surrounded by historic buildings and museums within the spectacular Cathedral Close, the Cathedral is unique in being built almost entirely in one architectural style - Early English Gothic. Britain's tallest spire (123m / 404ft) was added a generation later.

Caen Hill Locks
The Caen Hill Locks, part of a 29 lock system at Devizes, are all squeezed into about two miles of waterway.
The Locks are very impressive series of locks and are to be found on the Kennet and Avon Canal
Each lock is almost on top of the next one and there's plenty of large water roundabouts where the canal boats can move over to let another boat through.
