About this property
Stable Cottage is a lovely, single-storey cottage near Salisbury, Wiltshire, offering off-road parking and a private enclosed patio for laid-back outdoor meals, well-suited to a family or group of friends with two dogs in tow. Step inside and you’re welcomed into an open-plan living space designed for easy days and sociable evenings, with underfloor heating bringing a gentle warmth underfoot and a woodburning stove adding a glowing focal point when the weather turns. Settle into the sitting area with a film on the Smart TV or a favourite disc in the Blu-ray player, while the kitchen area keeps everything close at hand for effortless self-catering.
From morning coffees to supper shared at the dining table, the space flows naturally, making it simple to slip into holiday rhythm. When it’s time to unwind, two bedrooms offer flexible sleeping arrangements for families or friends: a super-king-size room for stretching out after a day of exploring, and a twin room that suits children or additional guests. A sleek shower room with a walk-in shower completes the layout, ideal for freshening up before heading out again. Outside, the enclosed patio becomes an extension of the living space, with furniture for lingering breakfasts and a charcoal barbecue ready for summer feasts.
A shop and a pub sit within easy reach, handy for topping up supplies or enjoying a drink out. For days out, Salisbury offers standout heritage with Salisbury Cathedral, the collections at Salisbury Museum, and the sweeping earthworks of Old Sarum. Nearby Wilton makes a lovely change of pace, with grand Wilton House, the distinctive Church of St Mary and St Nicholas, and the shops at Wilton Shopping Village. Head to Amesbury for iconic landmarks including Stonehenge, the ancient traces of Woodhenge, and the vast landscape of Durrington Walls. However you plan your time, Stable Cottage is a welcoming base for discovering Wiltshire.

The medieval city of Salisbury is the jewel in Wiltshire's crown, dominated by the majestic 13th century Gothic cathedral. The cathedral offers 750 years of history including Britain's tallest spire, the world's best preserved original Magna Carta, and Europe's oldest working clock. The surrounding cathedral close, full of architectural gems, is bordered by the River Avon and ancient Chilmark stone walls. The city offers historic streets with charming half-timbered buildings, traditional pubs, characterful shops and a twice-weekly market. Or, stroll along the Town Path and take in the awe-inspiring views across the water meadows towards the cathedral. After dark, there's a thriving arts scene, including one of the country's leading repertory theatres, a lively arts centre, cinema and a wealth of independent restaurants. Should you want to explore further afield then a short drive from Salisbury takes you to Stonehenge, the National Trust's Stourhead House and gardens, majestic Wilton House, as well as the New Forest National Park, and the Hampshire and Dorset coasts. There's so much to see and do in Salisbury and surrounding area that your only concern will be finding the time to do it all!
