Take a ten minute walk in the other direction to Crofton Pumping Station, the oldest working Beam Engines in the world. There are many interesting sights to see and things to do along the canal. Caen Hill flight of 29 locks at Devizes is well worth a visit. There are plenty of inns close by the canal along the way where you can refresh yourself.

Excellent Holiday!! KestrelCottage is fantastic and the facilities are spot on. This is a real Home from Home and extremely relaxing. We will remember this holiday for years to come. Thanks so much.
Kestrel Cottage was all we had hoped for! spacious, comfortable and very well equipped. We loved the animals and the rural setting and we are conviced that Great Bedwyn is the friendlist village in the UK.
We had a lovely break, it was lovely coming home to Kestrel Cottage every night, warm and cosy with everything you need supplied Bliss!
Back again! enjoyed our stay so much last time we had to return. Cottage still as comfortable as last time. Loved watching the various wildlife including a little owl each evening also lucky enough to see a barn owl twice too.
