Nestled at the heart of Avebury, a World Heritage Site that draws in thousands of tourists year round, lies the charming, four-bedroom holiday home of The Old Bakehouse.
A former bakehouse that dates back to the 18th century, boasting off-road parking, an enclosed garden, and a collection of well-presented interiors complete with stone flooring and exposed wooden beams throughout, this delightful abode welcomes a large family or group of sharing friends seeking a memorable, self-catered escape to the beautiful North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Park up in the allocated parking spot and take a moment to breathe in your brilliant new surroundings.
Step into your lovely new home, wherein you’ll discover a range of tastefully-appointed living spaces, including a fully-equipped kitchen with integrated appliances, a dining room with seating for eight and utility space, and a sitting room with a Smart TV and woodburning stove.
When sleep calls, head to refresh with an indulgent soak in the bath before you tuck yourself in for a well-earned rest in one of the four sumptuous bedrooms, including a king-size with accompanying en-suite.
If you can tear yourself from your quaint new lodgings, head out on foot to explore your local area.
Avebury has been listed as the best inland village in the UK in a new survey, dated Sept 2023, a Wiltshire tourist hotspot with so much on the doorstep.
A brief walk from your front door will bring you to the Avebury Community Shop, which sells homely essentials; the Red Lion Pub where you can treat your loved ones to a hearty lunch; along with a range of must-visit spots.
The National Trust Museum is a stone’s throw from your new dwelling, as are the sites of the National Trust property; Avebury Manor and Dovecot, the Alexander Keiller Museum, Fishlock’s Cottage, the Avebury Monument, and the ancient Avebury Henge and Stone Circles.
Just outside the village, you will find The Devil's Den to the east, and to the west the iconic Cherhill White Horse.
For a full day out, jump in the car and set out to explore the many wonders of the North Wessex Downs AONB, which include the Wilton Windmill, Combe Gibbet, Welford Park, The Living Rainforest, Stonehenge and the impressive Bucklebury Farm & Deer Safari Park.
