This one's a Wolf Spider (Lycosidae family), the two big eyes at the front are a good identifying feature. All the Mygalomorphae families have eye arrangements that are quite different to this and many have quite distinctive burrows. The notably circular burrows will usually be either wolf spiders or trapdoor spiders (Idiopidae family).
