The Resting Post is situated in the delightful village of Heytesbury, midway between Bath and Salisbury, and just 20 mins west of Stonehenge in the Wylye valley on the edge of Salisbury Plain. The owners, Angus and Felicity McLellan ran the Post Office and Stores here for 16 years until April 2003 when the property was tastefully converted to offer 3 bedrooms all with en suite facilities. The house is a Grade 2 listed building dating back to the 17th century and retains a great deal of its original character. A recent review says: ‘Fantastic little B&B…Cracking breakfast and very comfy bed. Would definitely stay again.’

This charming bed and breakfast is in a character Grade II listed building. The 17th century house is set in a delightful village halfway between Stonehenge (7 Miles) and Salisbury (5 Miles) in beautiful countryside with miles of bridleways to explore and in sight of the River Wylye, known for its excellent fly fishing. There are a selection of good pubs nearby for evening meals. The house has three clean, pretty en-suite guest rooms and breakfast is prepared from local produce and cooked on the Aga.

hat makes the Polebarn such a great place to stay is the combination of an extraordinary building and wonderful hospitality. Natasha and Liam run the hotel in the way that the building was designed. The house, unsually for Trowbridge, was built of golden Bath stone in 1789 (the year of the French Revolution) as a town house for a wealthy mill owner and his family and you still have the feeling of being welcomed into someone’s home. The ten bedrooms are all en suite and individually designed, grand and spacious doubles next to more cosy singles as you would expect in a family house. The hotel is in the centre of the bustling town and is very handily placed for our tours, ‘half an hour from everywhere’ as Liam says. The entrance hall is a beautiful example of Georgian architecture that once housed the original owner’s organ, designed by Thomas Chippendale Jr. no less. Apparently Mr Clark used to leave the front door open so that passersby could appreciate the hymns he played, and perhaps be reminded of what they had promised at church the previous Sunday! He also welcomed people into the hall to listen and they gathered along the galleried landing which still surrounds the hall.

The Lamb is a wonderfully traditional wayside inn situated in the centre of the beautiful village of Hindon in the West Wiltshire Downs, only a twenty minute drive from Stonehenge and half an hour from Salisbury. They pride themselves on their eighteen, individually appointed boutique-style bedrooms, four of which even have their own private garden terraces. The emphasis is on comfort, a traditional experience combined with modern accommodation including flat screen TVs and complimentary wifi. There is an extensive bar and dining area but the restaurant also has two stunning private dining rooms for hire. The bar area is dog friendly and well behaved dogs are welcome to stay in some of the rooms but please ask the hotel directly about availability and any extra charges.

The Red Lion is a very special pub set in the Avon side South Wiltshire village of East Chisenbury just a 10 minute drive from Stonehenge. The food is of the very highest quality; they have had a Michelin Star since 2013. The accommodation, Troutbeck has been open since 2012 and consists of 5 ‘unique bedrooms’ in the nearby riverside bungalow – ‘a retreat for our guests that echoes the same principals and attention to detail we implement at the pub in all of its fixtures, fittings, and quirky surprises.’
