Devizes is a small market town in north Wiltshire, probably best
known for the Kennet and Avon Canal's Caen Hill flight of 29 locks,
which rise 237 feet in 2½ miles. Or maybe because it has one of the
best breweries in the country, Wadworth's 6X bitter is well
renowned! Secret Devizes .........
Regency Ball, food and wine festival, Devizes to Westminster boat
race, Confetti Battle, Burlington, Lantern Parade, Jazz Festival
Henry Aldridge & Sons – auctioneers and renowned authority on the
Titanic.
A Devizes bed and
breakfast is an ideal base to explore Wiltshire. Stonehenge, Avebury,
Silbury Hill, Bath, Lacock and Salisbury are all easily reached for
fabulous days out.
If you are travelling with young children, Bowood House and gardens
is a magical experience for the whole family. Brokerswood Country
Park, Longleat, Center Parks, Butterfly World and Lydiard Park are
all less than an hours drive.
Every Thursday Devizes hosts a traditional market in the square,
which is well worth a visit.
