My archeology buff other half says this is his favourite site in the UK and I can see why. It is so unspoilt and the surrounding views of the countryside and Silbury Hill are outstanding.
It was very quiet when we went which also adds to the atmosphere & sense of magic.
Well worth a visit.

It is just a short walk from the lay-by to the top of the hill where the Long Barrow is situated. You get stunning views of Silbury Hill as you walk up. The site was fairly quiet when we arrived, maybe ten people at the most. Access is easy. You can also go inside the chamber, which is quite brilliant. There is no entry fee and you can stay there as long as you like. Well worth the trip.

This ancient long barrow is over 5000 years old. It is fairly accessible. There is a lay-by on the A4 marked for the long barrow and from there it is about a 10 minute uphill walk. The alternative is to park in the National Trust car park in Avebury and to walk past Silbury Hill, cross the A4 and then walk up the hill. The long barrow is interesting in that you can enter into part of it. We were particularly lucky to be there when the swallows were nesting within the long barrow and flying around. How long have they been nesting there? Up there you get some good views. It was well worth the walk.
