Discover the timeless beauty of the Cotswolds on this unforgettable countryside tour through one of England’s most picturesque regions. Designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), the Cotswolds spans nearly 800 square miles across five counties, offering rolling hills, charming villages, historic market towns, and postcard-perfect landscapes. Escape the fast pace of London and immerse yourself in the peaceful charm of rural England.
Your scenic Cotswolds adventure begins in the historic town of Burford, famously known as the “Gateway to the Cotswolds.” Steeped in history and traditional English character, Burford is home to quaint stone cottages, independent shops, and remarkable heritage landmarks. Explore the town’s medieval streets, admire the iconic three-arched bridge, visit England’s oldest pharmacy, and discover the historic almshouses that reflect centuries of local history.
Next, continue to the enchanting market town of Stow-on-the-Wold, one of the highest towns in the Cotswolds and a destination rich in medieval heritage. Once an important trading centre, Stow-on-the-Wold remains a favourite among visitors for its charming antique shops, traditional tea rooms, boutique stores, and vibrant market square. Surrounded by stunning countryside views, this idyllic town offers the perfect opportunity for memorable photographs and a relaxing stroll through classic English scenery.
Your final stop takes you to the world-famous village of Bourton-on-the-Water, often referred to as the “Venice of the Cotswolds.” Renowned for its honey-coloured stone buildings and peaceful setting along the River Windrush, Bourton-on-the-Water is one of the region’s most visited and beautiful villages. Enjoy time exploring its charming bridges, riverside pathways, and local attractions, including the unique Model Village — a fascinating one-ninth-scale replica of Bourton as it appeared in the 1930s and the only Grade II listed model village in England.
During your visit to Bourton-on-the-Water, indulge in a delicious lunch at The Old New Inn, a traditional country inn celebrated for serving classic British dishes prepared with fresh seasonal and locally sourced ingredients. Relax and soak in the authentic atmosphere of the Cotswolds before concluding your memorable countryside experience.
