Location

Harcourt Terrace is situated on the south side of the city, a two-minute walk from the green open riverside spaces of Queen Elizabeth Gardens. There is a short walk to local shops, the theatre, the cinema, restaurants and cafés, and Salisbury’s famous twice-weekly market. The Harcourt Health centre is very close by. The beautiful Cathedral Close and world-famous 13th century cathedral are also within easy walking distance.

The town path leads south to Harnham offering a tranquil rural setting, so famously captured by John Constable with his view of the Salisbury Cathedral.

A range of very strong options for schooling are all nearby, including the highly regarded Bishops Wordsworth & South Wilts grammar schools, and Salisbury Cathedral School, Chafyn Grove, Godolphin & Leehurst Swan in the independent sector.

There are variety of local gyms, sports clubs and fitness classes available locally.

There is a short walk to Salisbury railway station for direct trains into London Waterloo 90 minutes away, as well as connections to Bath, Bristol, Southampton and the west country. Travelling by car the A303 and M27 provide good road access to London, Southampton and the wider south of England.
