THE Cotswolds

The Cotswolds – with delightful villages in honey-coloured stone, set in tranquil river valleys and the contrasting upland areas where sheep still roam, give you a real taste of classic English countryside. The area is best explored on a walking tour, which we can tailor to meet the specific interests of your group.

The Cotswolds has been synonymous with the Arts and Crafts since the turn of the 20th Century. William Morris, C R Ashbee and the Barnsley brothers all relocated here to champion traditional crafts. The region is also blessed with a number of celebrated gardens, showing off the best of 20th Century design from Hidcote to Highgrove. Our expert Guides can give your group a unique and fascinating insight into the area.

Stone Age burial chambers, Iron Age hills-forts, Roman villas, medieval churches, market towns such as Stow-on-the-Wold, manor houses and the canals and mills of the industrial revolution can all be visited on a walking tour of this beautiful area in Central England.
