Tips

A pretty market town set amongst idyllic Wiltshire countryside, Marlborough is a lovely place to whittle away a few hours. Take a bite to eat at one of the many cafes, browse the independent shops on Britain's second widest high street and discover the town's interesting history. It is thought that humans have lived in Marlborough since at least 2400 BC. In the Marlborough College grounds you can find a prehistoric tumulus dating back to this period.

Small English market town in Wiltshire with about 8,000 inhabitants. In 1204 Marlborough was granted city rights and market rights.

Small, sweet shops and cafés, nice houses and alleys make up the charm and the city as a whole is simply lovely.
Insider tip: The Polly Tea Rooms on High Street. Traditional cakes and teas with an old fashioned feeling. Grandiose.

For fans of ancient legends and legends: on the area of Marlborough College - one of the leading private schools in England - there is a prehistoric burial mound. According to legend, the magician Merlin is buried here (Merlin Mound or Marlborough Mound).
Not far from Marlborough there are other historic places such as Silbury Hill or Avebury Stone Circle.
