The Cotswolds

I just reserved a spot for a tour of the Cotswolds on August 4th!  The Cotswolds is an area of rolling hills and idyllic villages (characterized by narrow streets and stone cottages) near Oxford.

 

North Cotswolds Tour


10.00am – 5.30pm (Tuesday & Saturday)

"We travel via Burford to the village of Taynton. After a short walk to appreciate the peace and tranquillity we continue through the villages of Great Barrington, Little Barrington, Great Rissington to Bourton-on-the-Water (45 minutes stop). From here it is a short drive to Lower Slaughter (20 minutes stop) and Upper Slaughter. We then continue up the Windrush Valley passing through Naunton and up to Snowshill. Dropping down into the valley we make our lunch stop in Chipping Campden, the most beautiful of all the market towns, you will have time to explore after lunch (1.5 hours stop). Driving to Broadway (25 minutes stop), we move on to visit Stanton and Stanway, two scenic villages. Our return to Oxford takes us via Stow-on-the-Wold (45 minutes stop), Chipping Norton and Woodstock."
