Romsey has nothing to offer at the best of times, let alone at 11pm on a Sunday, so we then board the 2308 Great Western Railway service 1F40 to Westbury, arriving there at 2358 on Sunday evening.

Have you ever been there? We have used Romsey as an ideal place to base ourselves in the past and both Romsey Abbey and King John's House are two examples that are deserving of mention.

Yes. My ex-boyfriend is originally from Salisbury and he said it isn't particularly exciting.
