Title: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: Ginginho on Friday, October 30, 2009, 21:19:04 What nice little towns/villages are there to visit in the Swindon area that have nice little local shops/boutique type things?
I want to take my missus out tomorrow, but not sure where. I'm thinking along the lines of Pewsey, but not sure what's there as i've never been there before and don't want to go there if there's fuck all there. Cheers peeps :) Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: grubby on Friday, October 30, 2009, 21:29:24 Pewsey...............inbred retards
Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, October 30, 2009, 21:29:55 Marlborough might be a good bet. Take another mortgage out though.
Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: leefer on Friday, October 30, 2009, 21:30:17 Nothing in Pewsey really...try Malmesbury,some nice womany(good word) shops,some nice eating places...and the Abbey is nice too,......not far to go either.
Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: Ginginho on Friday, October 30, 2009, 21:33:43 Marlborough's OK, been there several times, a bit poncy and sometimes a real ball ache to park, a good butchers there though.
Might give Malmesbury a go....cheers :) Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, October 30, 2009, 21:34:34 Really? My mum got bored in Malmesbury pretty quickly!
Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: Ginginho on Friday, October 30, 2009, 21:36:37 Never been there, never met your mum, so i'm still none the wiser :)

Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: grubby on Friday, October 30, 2009, 21:41:45 Burford is good too.
Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: Ginginho on Friday, October 30, 2009, 21:44:27 about an hour away but bourton on the water is lovely. ooh, good shout, yeah been there a few times also, that's winning :) Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: leefer on Friday, October 30, 2009, 21:50:46 A little further granted but Salisbury is brilliant.....and its still in Wiltshire.
Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: Chubbs on Friday, October 30, 2009, 22:11:25 not wiltshire but lechlade is nice, loads of little boutiques and andtiue shops, nice stroll down the riverside.
Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: Ginginho on Friday, October 30, 2009, 22:13:48 not wiltshire but lechlade is nice, loads of little boutiques and andtiue shops, nice stroll down the riverside. Lechlade was on my shortlist actually, only down the road, plus they have a Christmas shop that my missus would love. Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: sonicyouth on Friday, October 30, 2009, 22:19:07 half-term will probably mean that bourton on the water is absolutely heaving.
lechlade's nice, walk along the thames path :) Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: jayohaitchenn on Saturday, October 31, 2009, 03:03:14 Really? My mum got bored in Malmesbury pretty quickly! That's strange because we went to Tewkesbury and she fucking loved it. Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: Doore on Saturday, October 31, 2009, 10:15:40 Salisbury all the way - the cathedral is one of the most stunning buildings in the country.
Title: Re: Wiltshire towns/villages Post by: Ginginho on Saturday, October 31, 2009, 11:41:01 Went to Lechlade in the end, and I must say that Christmas shop is fucking ace
