The Cotswolds

The Cotswolds region is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) within the UK, as well it might be with such gorgeous countryside featuring gentle hillsides, river valleys, water meadows and beech woods, with market towns and villages, buildings and field dividing walls built from beautiful honey-coloured limestone.

There is plenty of it too; nearly 800 sq. miles (that’s over 2,000 sq. km) which makes it ideal for recreation: touring, walking, cycling, fishing, riding, and camping. There are gardens and castles to visit, Roman sites & museums, a Palace, and even an ancient stone circle.

A Driver Guided Tour of the Cotswolds, which can be combined with visits to other places such as Oxford or Stratford-Upon-Avon, also takes in some of those places with mysterious sounding names:  Stow-on-the-Wold, Moreton-in-Marsh, The Slaughters, Chipping Norton, Shipton-under-Wychwood, etc.

Each of these places has a story to tell ranging across the Roman occupation, the English Civil War, The Lord of the Rings, and even (would you believe) an iconic pop record from the 70s!
