Arundells is a Grade II* listed house at 59 Cathedral Close, Salisbury, Wiltshire, England. Located on the West Walk of the Close, next to the 'Wardrobe' (Rifles Museum), it was the home of Edward Heath, the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, from 1985 until his death in 2005.

The house and its extensive garden are open to the public five days a week from late March to late October each year (it is closed on Thursdays and Fridays).

    Really enjoyed my visit. Very informative guides. A beautiful and lived in house and lovely garden.
  • By Nigel Denton-Howes
    A wonderful example of a reasonably undisturbed residence from the period. The grounds are gorgeous and the staff were not only knowledgeable but also extremely good with our young daughter who was full of questions for them.
