| Overlooking
the Green in this small Pewsey Vale village and a short walk from the
Kennet & Avon Canal, this 18th century, brick and thatched cottage
has been tastefully refurbished by its owners and now provides a
charming and very comfortable pied a terre.
This part of Wiltshire has many contrasting landscapes - the
ancient Savernake Forest, the open expanses of the Marlborough Downs
above the more sheltered Vale of Pewsey. The area is rich in
prehistoric sites such as Avebury Stone Circle, Silbury Hill and Kennet
Long Barrow and is also of interest for its industrial past - Crofton
Beam Engines and a working windmill at Wilton. Narrow boat trips are
available on the canal from nearby Wootton Rivers and Pewsey. For keen
cyclists, Crabtree Cottage is situated on The Wiltshire Cycleway route.
The attractive market towns of Marlborough and Hungerford, well known
for their antique shops, pubs and restaurants, are a short drive from
Burbage. Further afield but still within an hour's driving distance are
Stonehenge, Bath, Oxford, Salisbury and The Cotswolds. |
