W I L T S H I R EW I L T S H I R EWiltshire is rich in the reminders of ritual and packed with not-to-be-missed sights. Its verdant landscape is littered with more mysterious stone circles, proces-sional avenues and ancient barrows than anywhere else in Britain.
SALISBURY E 3Centred on a majestic cathedral that's topped by the tallest spire in England, Salisbury has been an impor-tant provincial city for more than a 1000 years, and its streets form an architectural timeline ranging from medieval walls and half-timbered Tudor town houses to Georgian mansions and Victorian villas.
STONEHENGE E 3Welcome to Britain’s most iconic archaeological site. This compelling ring of monolithic stones has been attracting a steady stream of pilgrims, poets and philosophers for the last 5000 years and is still a mys-tical, ethereal place – a haunting echo from Britain's forgotten past.
AVEBURY E 2Older than Stonehenge, and with a diameter of 348m, Avebury is the largest stone circle in the world. A large section of the village is actually inside the stones – footpaths wind around them, allowing you to really soak up the extraordinary atmosphere. Avebury also boasts an encircling landscape that's rich in prehistoric sites.Stonehenge

B AT HB AT HBath is one of Britain's most appealing cities. Exquisite Roman and Georgian architecture, hipster hang-outs and swish spas make it hard to resist.
ROMAN BATHS D 3In typically ostentatious style, the Romans built a bath-house complex above Bath's 46°C (115°F) hot springs. Set alongside a temple dedicated to the healing goddess Sulis-Minerva, the baths now form one of the world's best-preserved ancient Roman spas, and are encircled by 18th- and 19th-century buildings.
ROYAL CRESCENT E 2Bath is famous for its glorious Georgian architecture, and it doesn't get any grander than this semicircular terrace of majestic town houses overlooking the green sweep of Royal Victoria Park. Built between 1767 and 1775, the houses appear perfectly symmetrical from the outside, but the owners were allowed to tweak the interiors.
JANE AUSTEN CENTRE D2Bath is known to many as a location in Jane Austen's novels, including Persuasion and Northanger Abbey. Although Austen only lived in Bath between 1801 and 1806, she remained a regular visitor. Here, guides in Re-gency costumes regale you with Austen-esque tales as you tour memorabilia relating to the writer's life in Bath.Royal Crescent

B R I S T O LB R I S T O LOnce a centre for heavy industry, over the last few decades Bristol has reinvented itself as a hub of culture and creativity. Derelict docks are becoming leisure venues, heritage attractions ooze imagination and a world-class street-art scene adds colour and spice.
SS GRE AT BRITAIN D2This mighty, innovative steamship was designed by engineering genius Isambard Kingdom Brunel in 1843. You get to wander the galley, surgeon's quarters and dining saloon and see a massive replica steam engine at work.
M SHED D2Set amid the iconic cranes of Bristol's dockside, this impressive museum is a treasure trove of memorabilia and off ers an absorbing overview of Bristol's history – from slaves' possessions and Wallace & Gromit fi gu-rines to a Banksy artwork and a set of decks once used by Massive Attack.
CLIF TON SUSPENSION BRIDGE D2Clifton's most famous landmark is the 76m-high Clift-on Suspension Bridge, which spans the Avon Gorge. Construction began in 1836, although its designer Isambard Kingdom Brunel died before its completion in 1864. Initially created to carry light horse-drawn traffi c and foot passengers, these days the bridge carries around 12,000 cars every day.Clifton Suspension Bridge

S O M E R S E T & D O R S E TS O M E R S E T & D O R S E TDorset's shoreline is one of Britain’s best and boasts sea-carved bays, crumbly cliff s and beaches loaded with fossilised souvenirs. Meanwhile, neighbouring Som-erset is the very picture of rural English countryside, with its pastoral landscape of hedgerows, fi elds and hills.
LYME REGIS D 3Lyme Regis is a pivot point of the Unesco-listed Jurassic Coast: fossil fever is defi nitely in the air and everyone, from palaeontologists to those out for a bit of fun, can engage in a spot of coastal rummaging. Add sandy beaches and some delightful places to sleep and eat, and you get a charming base for explorations.
GL ASTONBURY D 3While Glastonbury is now famous for its mud-soaked music festival, it has a much more ancient past: the town's iconic tor was an important pagan site, and is rumoured by some to be the mythical Isle of Avalon, King Arthur's last resting place.
E XMOOR NATIONAL PARK C 3Chances are you won't want to leave Exmoor’s broad, russet views. In the middle sits the higher moor, an other- worldly landscape of tawny grasses and huge skies. In the north, sheer, rock-strewn river valleys cut into the plateau and coal-black cliff s lurch towards the sea.
ABBOTSBURY SWANNERY D 3Every May some 600 free-fl ying swans nest at this swannery. Wandering the network of trails that winds between the swans' nests is an awe-inspiring experience that's punctuated by occasional territorial displays (snuffl ing coughs and stand-up fl apping), ensuring that even the liveliest children are stilled.

D E V O ND E V O NDevon off ers freedom. Its rippling, beach-fringed land-scape is studded with historic homes, vibrant cities and wild, wild moors. Here you can ditch schedules and to-do lists and hike a rugged coast path, take a scenic boat trip, or get lost in hedge-lined lanes that aren't even on your map.
DARTMOOR NATIONAL PARK C 3Covering an area of 368 sq miles, Dartmoor is a stark, wild and bleakly beautiful place, dotted with granite- topped hills, marshy bogs and patches of purple heather, as well as many weirdly shaped tors. With its forbidding landscape and scattered prehistoric remains, this is magnifi cent walking country.
GREENWAY C 4The captivating summer home of crime writer Agatha Christie sits beside the placid River Dart. Furnishings and knick-knacks are much as the author left them, and the bewitching waterside gardens include features that pop up in Christie's mysteries, so you get to spot locations made notorious by fi ctional murders.
E XE TER CATHEDR AL C 3Magnifi cent in warm, honey-coloured stone, Exeter's cathedral is one of Devon’s most impressive ecclesi-astical sights. Dating largely from the 12th and 13th centuries, the west front is framed by extraordinary medieval statuary, while inside the ceiling soars up-wards to the longest span of unbroken Gothic vaulting in the world.Exeter Cathedral

Eden Project
Isles of Scilly
C O R N W A L LC O R N W A L LYou can't get further west than the ancient Celtic king-dom of Cornwall. Blessed with the southwest's wildest coastline and most breathtakingly beautiful beach-es, this proudly independent peninsula has always marched to its own tune. While the staple industries of old – mining, fi shing and farming – have all but disap-peared, Cornwall has since reinvented itself as one of the nation's creative corners.
ISLES OF SCILLY A 4While only 28 miles west of the mainland, in many ways the Isles of Scilly feels like a diff erent world. Life on this archipelago of around 140 tiny islands seems hardly to have changed in decades, and the only noise pollution comes from breaking waves and cawing gulls. Re-nowned for its glorious beaches, there are few places better to escape.
TINTAGEL CASTLE B 3Famous as the supposed birthplace of King Arthur, Tintagel's epic cliff top castle has been occupied since Roman times and once served as a residence for Cornwall's Celtic kings. Clinging to black granite cliff s, surrounded by booming surf and wheeling gulls, it's the classic fairy-tale castle.
EDEN PROJ ECT B 4The giant biomes of the Eden Project – the world's largest greenhouses – have become Cornwall's most famous landmark, and an essential visit. Looking rather like a lunar landing station, Eden's bubble-shaped biomes maintain miniature ecosystems that enable all kinds of weird and wonderful plants to fl ourish.

ITINERARIESHISTORIC BATH WALKING TOURBath Abbey C4Begin your architectural amble at the city's iconic ecclesiastical edifi ce, built on the site of an 8th-century chapel.k 450m to Pulteney Bridge
Pulteney Bridge D3At the northern end of the Grand Parade, this bridge was designed by Robert Adams in 1773 and is one of only a handful in the world to be lined with shops. k 800m to the Circus
The Circus B2Designed to echo the Colosseum in Rome, the three-tiered pillars exhibit the key styles of classical architecture and the facades are supposedly studded with masonic symbols.k 200m to Royal Crescent
Royal Crescent A2Constructed by John Wood the Younger in 1774, the terrace is now Grade I listed, making it as architecturally signifi cant as Buckingham Palace. No 1 Royal Crescent is open to the public.
ART & HISTORY WALKING TOUR AT BRISTOL HARBOURWell Hung Lover H2On Frogmore St, one of Banksy's best loved pieces of street art features an apparently two-timing wife, an angry husband and a naked man dangling from a window.k 1km to M Shed
M Shed J4Head upstairs in this museum to see slavery and Wallace & Gromit exhibits and another Banksy: the Grim Reaper, which the artist painted on the side of a nightclub boat.k 1km to Girl With a Pierced Eardrum
Girl with the Pierced Eardrum G4This 2014 Banksy creation re-imagines the famous Vermeer portrait, but uses an alarm box instead of the pearl earring. It's a little hard to fi nd – head for the clock tower of the white building outside Bristol Marina, and duck around the side.k 350m to SS Great Britain
SS Great Britain G3This is your must-visit Bristol sight – a 98m, steam- powered Victorian super ship set in a spectacular dry dock that makes it look as if she's fl oating in a sea of glass. Afterwards, refuel at Dockyard Cafe, right outside.
SOUTHWESTERN VISTAS DRIVING TOURGlastonbury P5Begin your drive in Glastonbury – famous for its annual music festival, ruined abbey and many mystical legends.K 120km to Dartmoor National Park
Dartmoor National Park J8This vast national park feels like it has tumbled straight out of a Tolkien tome, with its honey-coloured heaths, moss- smothered boulders, tinkling streams and eerie granite hills.K 70km to Eden Project
Eden Project F10Cross into Cornwall to explore the space-age biodomes of the Eden Project, now considered one of Britain's modern architectural wonders.K 65km to St Ives
St Ives C11Visit the numerous galleries lining the cobbled streets of this picturesque port town.K 25km to Land's End
Land's End A12Conclude your drive at Land's End, where the English mainland comes to a fi nal full stop.
