Avebury is part of the Stonehenge and Avebury World Heritage Site for its outstanding prehistoric archaeology.
It is also where you can find Avebury Manor and Garden, which was built in the 1550’s. In 2012 it was refurbished by the BBC as the focus of a television series called ‘The Manor Reborn’ where each room was decorated as a different period, from Tudor to the 1930’s, to reflect the lives of the people who had lived there in the past.
This means that you can really immerse yourself in the experience, sit at the dining tables, lie on the beds, or have a game of snooker. Most days during the summer months you can also enjoy a delicious cream tea in the tea-room.
The pretty village of Avebury lies partly within the stone circle, something you will not see anywhere else in the world. There is a pub, shops and if you visit the Old Farmyard off the High Street you will come to the National Trust hub with information on Avebury, a museum, cafe and National Trust shop.
