Lydiard Park is a beautiful historic estate on the western edge of Swindon, with the Palladian House, Church and Walled Garden, set in 260 acres of parkland. The children’s play area, cafe & tea rooms, events and education programmes make Lydiard Park a great destination for a family day out.
Lotmead Farm

Barbury Castle
Overlooking the town of Swindon, this 60 hectare site is notable for its chalk grassland and associated wildlife. The iron-age hill fort is the best example of this habitat, as part of it has remained undisturbed since ancient times. The thin soil with good drainage allows only specialist plants to grow.
STEAM Museum
Museum of the Great Western Railway is housed in a beautifully restored Grade II listed railway building in the heart of the former Swindon railway works. Located right next to Swindon’s Designer Outlet, the Museum tells the story of the men and women who built, operated and travelled on the Great Western Railway. See famous locomotives, ‘drive’ our train simulator and even work the signals in their interactive GWR signal box!
Swindon Designer Outlet
Outlet mall with fashion & athletic brands, plus restaurants & a children’s play area. Find it next door to the STEAM Museum.
Coleshill Secret Bunkers
Potter around Coleshill and stumble across our secret Second-World-War history, admire the Victorian model farm buildings and discover the tragic fate of Coleshill House, which was ravaged by fire.
Coate Water Country Park
Coate Water is a country park situated to the southeast of central Swindon not far from Wanborough. It takes its name from its main feature, a reservoir originally built to provide water for the Wilts & Berks Canal. The reservoir formed a 70-acre lake, built in 1822 by diverting the River Cole.
Roves Farm
Roves Farm is a family run, working farm open to the public year round. Roves Farm covers 166 hectares just 3 miles east of Swindon, on the Wiltshire and Oxfordshire border.
