  • The Saturday Night fights (not pay per view). If you think Mike Tyson is an animal, you should see some of the fights in Calne on a Saturday night.
  • "Bowood" off the A4 towards Chippenham - great adventure playground, lovely grounds for walking. Do a good deal on season tickets.
  • White horse on the hill at Cherhill (A4 towards Marlborough).
