About the Cotswolds
The Cotswolds are a range of gentle hills extending northeast of the city of Bath, through Cheltenham to Stratford-upon-Avon, the ‘Heart of England’. The Cotswold landscape, you will discover, is an entrancing mixture of parkland, cultivated fields with dry-stone walls and patches of unspoilt woodland. Early prosperity based on the medieval woollen industry and the availability of easily worked honey-coloured limestone resulted in the building of a unique cluster of beautiful towns and villages.

The Cotswolds is the epitome of the English countryside. It is no wonder that this is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty as rolling hills meet with quaint villages that are all preserved in a glorious state.
There is no better way to explore this stunning region of patchwork fields surrounded by dry-stone walls and acres of unspoilt woodland, than taking by part in some walks in the Cotswolds. Allowing you to enjoy this scenery at your own pace.

If you want to make the most of this idyllic region, then why not go cycling in the Cotswolds. Meander through the countryside visiting postcard perfect medieval villages that are all built in the honey toned limestone that characterises this part of the British countryside. Churches and stately homes adorn this part of England, and there is nothing more rewarding than a walk or cycle in the Cotswolds.
We chose the Cotswold Walk and can't recommend it highly enough. The beautiful scenery and gorgeous villages along the way made it pretty special. The accommodation was great and breakfast at each destination kept us going through the day. The instructions were fantastic, very detailed and made it a lot easier to find where we were going. Also no issues with the luggage arriving at our accommodation each night. Highly recommend them and can't wait until our next adventure. M. Whitney.
