I didn't know what to expect of Salisbury other than a convenient home base for visiting ancient sites. What I found was a lovely medieval town in a beautiful, tranquil river setting that is lovely just to look at and walk in. Trying to describe it doesn't do the setting justice - just think of the stereotypical English countryside North Americans see on TV (cue the swans and ducks swimming in the Avon and cooing doves outside your hotel window) and you'll start to get the idea. Note that if you are looking to visit attractions in town, check their hours first as they can sometimes keep "bankers hours" and close surprisingly early (e.g. Magna Carta viewing at Salisbury Cathedral closed at 5:00 pm on a weekday while I was visiting in late May - missed it by 5 minutes). While you can easily walk the town and find pubs, restaurants and local attractions, in order to visit surrounding attractions outside of town (e.g. Stonehenge) you might want to hire a car or book a tour that provides transportation. I would love to return to Salisbury to spend more time in this beautiful historic city and to explore the countryside.

Salisbury cathedral is home to one of four original transcriptions of the Magna Carta! It is also the tallest church spire in the UK. Great cafe in the cathedral with gluten free and allergy conscious food. We also caught a bus to Stonehenge (25 minutes away) and toured there. Give yourself at least 2 hours for each of those profoundly historical stops.

Salisbury is quaint, quirky and full of history. The cathedral with the Magna Carta, and a day trip to Stonehenge would satisfy any history junkie. The town itself had a very friendly walkable center, with plenty of shopping and eating options. Great variety of architecture, with plenty of "off the beaten path" options to fill several days of sightseeing. Train and bus service is very convenient, allowing you to visit the surrounding area without a car. We did our 3 week trip in the U.K. exclusively by train, traveling from city to city. Once there, we used local buses (Cotswolds) or a tour (Edinburgh) to see more of the local countryside. A great way to travel if you don't want to deal with a rental car. Spent 2 days in Salisbury, and wish it had been longer.

We had been to Stonehenge twice before. In the 70's we walked amongst the stones (a thrill), in the 90's outside a fence, and now outside a roped off area with visitors pavilion etc (nicely done). The stones are probably ageless but I felt the passage of time with the different stages of viewing them! Amazing site!

Salisbury is a lovely town with lots of nice shops, pubs and restaurants. It has a very friendly atmosphere. The cathedral is absolutely stunning! The whole surrounding area is full of old houses. Of course a visit to Stonehenge is a must!!! It can easily reached with a touristic bus, about 15 pounds. Or if you are bit more adventurous.. take the bus to Amesbury and walk to Stonehenge.

So many things to do and see in and around the town. Great parks to just sit back and enjoy the views of the river. Lots of shops and don't forget the markets. Check out all the nooks and crannies in this lovely town, and yes do spend a few hours at the cathedral .
“Close to Salisbury yet still remote. Great food available next door. Unusual, quaint, b & b.”
“Three Crowns Guest House was very easy to get to and once there we were able to forget the car and walk by the river and fields right into Salisbury and the Cathedral. The Old Mill next door serves great meals in the garden by the river. The owners of Three Crowns are lovely and have created a welcoming, relaxed Guest House in a pretty, tranquil setting.”
“This historic hotel was beautiful and the room at comfortable. It's very conveniently located in Salisbury. The people were incredibly friendly and helpful.”
“We had two dinners in this hotel during our stay. The food was excellent especially the seabass fish.. Although it is a bit pricy but no regret to try.. The staffs are very friendly and helful too..”
“The hotel was located at a central location in Salisbury, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The biscuits, mineral water and coffee/tea-making facilities included in the rooms were also nice.”
