Just outside the village of Chapmanslade, these woods are perfect for a breath of fresh air and a bit of peace and quiet. The trail around the woods is only 1.8km, so long enough for the kids to run around and explore, but not too much hard work.

The white horse carved into the chalk hillside at Bratton Camp is visible for miles, and no wonder – it’s 180ft tall and 170ft wide, which is pretty enormous! Up above it is a former Iron Age hillfort and Neolithic long barrow, and there are some good circular walks from here if you fancy a stroll. Otherwise it’s a lovely place to go for a picnic, a spot of kite flying, to kick a ball about or just to admire the incredible views across the Wiltshire landscape.

Caen Hill is the steepest part of the Kennet & Avon Canal, with 29 locks and a rise of 237 feet over 2 miles. That's some remarkable feat of engineering, which is why this continuous flight of locks is a Scheduled Ancient Monument. It's a nice place to hang out, to just sit and watch the comings and goings or to walk or cycle along the towpath to Devizes Wharf or Wadworth Brewery. A Welcome Boat has local information and activity sheets; have a go at pond dipping or look out for wildlife.

The short steep climb to the top of Cley Hill is well worth it for the staggering views out over the Somerset and Wiltshire landscapes. It’s a good place for picnics, for star gazing, UFO spotting and for looking at the flora and fauna that these chalk downlands support. There’s a small car park near the bottom of the hill.

This a lovely spot on the Kennet & Avon Canal, where swans glide quietly on the water, ducks dabble, and now and then, a kingfisher darts across the water. People come here to walk or cycle along the towpath, to fish, or to watch the occasional boat come through the five locks. Sit outside the Barge Inn and watch the sunset; the simple things in life are the best.

A lovely spot on the banks of the Kennet & Avon Canal where you can go and laze away an afternoon with a picnic and a game of French cricket or rounders.

Among Wiltshire's curiosities and attractions are the huge white horses carved into the chalk hills; of the 24 identified in Britain, 13 of them were in Wiltshire. 8 are still visible - at Westbury, Cherhill, Marlborough, Alton Barnes, Hackpen, Broad Town, Pewsey and Devizes. They aren't as old as you might think - the oldest is the one at Westbury, believed to date back to 1778, the newest is the one at Devizes, which was carved to mark the Millennium in 1999. Have a pootle round, see if you can find them all. Tie it in with a nice pub lunch.
