Seven things to see and do in Wiltshire this March

Indulge in a Hollychocs experience

For a deliciously unique evening, Hollychocs is offering a chocolate-tasting experience on March 21 that’s got our mouths watering!

While sipping on one of 12 speciality hot chocolates, you’ll learn all about the origins of chocolate, how it’s made, and even how to taste it like a connoisseur. Then, roll up your sleeves to create your own handmade chocolate truffles. As a bonus, you’ll get a special discount if you fancy treating yourself to some goodies.

The experience costs £60 per person for two hours of chocolate heaven.

If you’re looking for a Mother’s Day treat, we recommend booking Hollychocs’ luxurious afternoon tea. For £39.95 per person, you’ll get a decadent spread of chocolate chip scones with clotted cream, triple chocolate brookies, handmade truffles, and mini versions of their ultimate hot chocolates. A guaranteed way to impress Mum!

Meet the newborn lambs at Lackham Farm

For a fun family day out, head to Lackham near Lacock for their popular Lambing Weekends. On March 15, 16, 22, and 23, you can watch ewes with their newborn lambs and, if you’re lucky, catch a woolly lamb being born.

There’s plenty of entertainment for the little ones, from bird of prey displays to milking demonstrations, farming machinery, and small animals to admire. It’s a perfect opportunity to introduce the kids to farm life and enjoy the countryside. Book your tickets now for an unforgettable experience!

A family ticket, for up to five people is £40. Book via Eventbrite here.

Take a stroll around Heale Garden

From March 12, the beautiful Heale Garden, at Heale House in Middle Woodford, reopens to the public.

March is the perfect time to visit, as spring flowers burst into life. You can wander through eight acres of stunning gardens, including an authentic Japanese tea house and the striking red Nikko bridge. Heale Garden and House has a rich history, with links to King Charles II, who is said to have hidden here during his escape to France in 1651. Today, it’s a beautiful part of our county’s heritage.
