Spire View

Perched on a working Wiltshire farm, Spire View earns its name from the distant glimpse of Salisbury Cathedral's famous spire visible across the rolling countryside. This first-floor coach house offers the kind of romantic retreat where modern farm stay meets genuine rural character. The open-plan living space makes clever use of every square foot. A reclining sofa faces a Smart TV, while the dining area seats couples for evening meals prepared in the modern kitchen. The real draw, though, lies in the views. Through the windows, unspoilt farmland stretches away in every direction, and at certain times of year, you might spot newborn lambs or calves in the fields during your stay. A super-comfy double bed provides restful sleep, with guests consistently praising the mattress quality. The modern bathroom features a P-shaped bath with a shower attachment, perfect for soaking away the day's adventures. A sofa bed in the living area can accommodate additional guests if needed, making this suitable for up to four with a bit of creative sleeping arrangements. Outside, a small terrace with a bistro table and chairs overlooks open farmland, positioned perfectly for evening drinks as the sun sets behind the famous spire in the distance. Your private hot tub adds another dimension to evenings here, with those same views stretching away as you soak beneath the stars. The village pub sits just 350 yards away for evenings when cooking feels like too much effort. Guests regularly mention walking the short distance for dinner, then strolling back under darkening skies. The historic city of Salisbury is just a few miles away, offering boutique shops, independent restaurants, and of course, that famous cathedral up close. Beyond the immediate area, Wiltshire opens up in every direction. The vast expanses of Salisbury Plain include the lost village of Imber, accessible only on certain days. Stonehenge and Avebury offer different perspectives on ancient Britain, while Thruxton race circuit provides adrenaline fixes from karting to supercars for those seeking something faster. The owners welcome guests to explore the acres of unspoilt farmland during their stay. This isn't a manicured show farm but a working agricultural operation, with all the authentic character that implies. Mud on boots, animal sounds in the distance, and the genuine rhythms of rural life provide the soundtrack to staying here. A hamper of local produce is available for £40 if you'd like to make an occasion extra special, arranged directly with the owners after booking.
