Location:
Devizes is a vibrant market town with a good range of independent shops. Supermarkets include Sainsbury and M and S Food, and there are plenty of pubs, cafe's and restaurants plus of course, the weekly produce market. There is a great museum, library, sports centre, a lively annual timetable of festivals and events, plenty of live music and a strong artistic community.
The historic cities of Bath and Salisbury are within an hour and London can be reached by train in just over an hour from Chippenham and Pewsey stations, amongst others, easily within a half hour drive.
The town is surrounded by the far reaching Wiltshire countryside including Roundway Down and the Vale of Pewsey with their white horses, as well as Salisbury Plain. All make cycling, riding and walking a real pleasure. The Kennet and Avon Canal runs past and there are great local golf courses at Bowood and North Wilts.
Good schools for all ages in both the state and private sector are easily reached by foot or a short drive or bus ride.
