Welcome to Britford

Britford is a small village located in the county of Wiltshire, England. It is situated on the banks of the River Avon, just a few miles south of the city of Salisbury. The village is known for its picturesque countryside, historic buildings, and tranquil atmosphere. Britford is a popular destination for tourists who are looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy the natural beauty of the English countryside.

One of the most notable landmarks in Britford is the St. Peter's Church, which dates back to the 12th century. The church is a fine example of Norman architecture and features a beautiful stained glass window that was designed by the famous artist, William Morris. Another historic building in the village is the Britford Manor House, which was built in the 16th century and is now a private residence. The village also has a number of charming thatched cottages and traditional English pubs, which offer a warm welcome to visitors.

Britford is surrounded by rolling hills, lush green fields, and meandering streams, making it an ideal location for outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, and fishing. The village is also close to a number of popular tourist attractions, including Stonehenge, Old Sarum, and the New Forest National Park. Whether you are looking for a peaceful retreat or an action-packed adventure, Britford has something to offer everyone.
