Just 250 yards from the High Street in Marlborough lies Wye House, a fine 18th century Grade II listed building now converted into six retirement apartments overlooking a formal garden with pleached and pollarded lime avenues. To the east of the main house there are four apartments and nine cottages. Built in a brick Regency style, they lie to the north and south of the public garden. The cottages with one exception, all have conservatories.

Marlborough is renowned for having one of the widest and grandest high streets in England. Seventeenth century merchant‘s houses are concealed behind much later eighteenth century facades and medieval cottages can be found in intriguing alleyways that lie between the colonnaded shops in the High Street. The town has its own golf and leisure centre, complete with swimming pool. Concerts, plays and exhibitions of work by local artists and craftsmen can be seen at St Peter‘s church and a lively calendar of annual events include the famous Marlborough International Jazz Festival, which is held in July.
