The Cotswolds is classified as an area of outstanding beauty, famed for its traditional villages, rolling hills, cream teas, sheep, and Victorian follies. It is one of the UK’s most popular tourist spots so join us on our small group tour to get a more ‘off the beaten track’ experience of this charming area. Beautiful in all seasons we will visit some of the highlights of the Cotswolds, all within a day’s driving distance from London.
A rural idyll that was once the heart of the wool industry in the medieval times, exporting textiles throughout Europe. During the Victorian Era the newly built railways passed this area by, meaning that its medieval charm has been preserved. It was rediscovered by the pioneers of Arts & Crafts Movement and the Pre-Raphaelites in the late Victorian era, who made it fashionable and created lots of small artisan workshops making goods such as furniture, jewellery and ceramics.
First, we will visit Bibury with its Trout Farm and the old Weavers Cottages of Arlington Row.
Then we will go to Bourton-on-the-Water our lunch stop. After lunch we will visit the iconic Broadway Tower for some great views across the countryside with entry included.
Lastly, we will tour Stow-on-the-Wold. Stow-on-the-Wold is a market town and a quintessential English town with mellow Cotswold stone houses and shops.
