Yes, it does get busy at Avebury, only Stonehenge beats it for the number of visitors.

There are always people within Avebury.....if only drinking in the pub or lying in their beds in their homes which stand within the circle!

Avebury is massive, you can`t see it all at once. It dwarfs Long Meg and Her Daughters, which is a very large circle in its own right.

When I visit ancient sites, I like to have them to myself, but Avebury is different. The other people don`t matter, you can always find a quite spot.

If you do manage to get there early on a sunny morning, you`ll have a wonderful experience.
