Could you do a day trip to Stonehenge from The Cotswolds?

I will be visiting in September and basing myself in the Cotswolds. Is it possible to do a day trip to Stonehenge and Avebury from there? We will have a hire car. Thanks for your time.
No problem at all – there is actually more to see at Avebury as the village is quite quaint with a great pub as well. Try and avoid weekends if you can as they are the busiest times.

Yes, it is quite an easy journey, depending on where exactly you are based. Look up RAC Routefinder and they will give you the route. I hope you enjoy your stay.

I used to live in the Cotswolds, and I took my American wife there one day. It’s not a long journey at all.
Depending on where in the Cotswolds you are staying, I’d say it’s going to take between an hour or two each way.
You can look it up on MapQuest.co.uk. Put in the town you are going to be staying, and Amesbury, Salisbury as your destination, to give you a bit of an idea. Stonehenge is about 2 miles from Amesbury.
