About this property
Nestled on the outskirts of Alderbury, a quiet village just outside Salisbury, rests this delightful, first-floor holiday lodge, Avon Turn View. With a tasteful, wooden-clad exterior, and immaculately-presented open-plan living space, and enjoying scenic views of the nearby River Avon, this charming property welcomes a couple seeking a peaceful, fuss-free stay in the heart of Wiltshire. Drive up and unpack, before settling down to enjoy everything your new accommodation has to offer, including a fully-equipped kitchenette that provides everything you'll need to rustle up home-cooked meals for you and your loved one. Settle down to enjoy a candlelit dinner at the dining table before switcghing on theTV as you raise a glass to toast your romantic escape. When sleep calls, treat yourself to a refreshing shower before retiring to the plush king-size bed, which patiently awaits to bring you a night of well-earned rest. In the morning, enjoy a cup of coffee on the furniture in the outdoor patio before setting off to explore your local surroundings. Head into Alderbury to enjoy some traditional pub fare at The Green Dragon on your wy to the National Trust landmark of Pepperbox Hill. A short drive in the opposite direction will bring you to Salisbury, where you and your partner can spend an afternoon roaming the grounds of the Churchill Gardens or Harnham Water Meadows, snapping photos of the High Street Gate, and brushing up on local history at The Salisbury Museum. Your trip to the region would be incomplete without spending time in the famous New Forest National Park, which houses several, stunning attractions including the Bolderwood Deer Sanctuary, Ocknell Inclosure, Furzey Gardens, and the New Forest Wildlife Park, just to name a few. Perfect any time of year, enjoy a romantic escape to Wiltshire when booking Avon Turn View.
Shute End is a little hamlet in Wiltshire, three miles south of Salisbury, near to the well-known area of the New Forest. It's what we'd call a peaceful retreat where you can enjoy the best of rural England. The historic cathedral city of Salisbury, with its magnificent heritage, charter market, and wide variety of stores, pubs, and restaurants, is only three miles away if you feel like exploring the neighbourhood, and a small country road close to Avon Turn will take you to the New Forest boundary in about 15 minutes.

It was so quiet and peaceful. We watched the swans on the river, a deer in the garden, squirrels and lots of birds. During our stay Sheilagh and Martin kindly let us use their decking by the river. We spent a few hours having drinks one evening, watching the river and taking in the beautiful scenery. We could even see Salisbury Cathedral in the distance. The accommodation was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The hosts are so friendly and let us have apples and pears from their garden. This place is very special and we loved it.

Bed and bedding were super-comfortable, all equipment clean and of good quality. Salisbury is just a few minutes away by car, but we could escape to the tranquillity of Avon Turn View at the end of a busy day. A real bonus was being allowed to use the owners' decking next to the river, where we loved watching the river and its wildlife in the unseasonably clement weather - 4 days of sunshine in mid October! Shelagh and Martin were the perfect hosts - we even went home with some apples from their tree. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in this part of the world.
