Burford is one of the most picturesque towns in the Cotswolds, with its medieval bridge, stone houses and ancient church.
Bourton-on-the-Water is a popular destination with the gently flowing River Windrush running through the centre of the village and crossed by attractive little bridges.
One of the delights of visiting the Cotswolds is exploring the different areas, each with its own identity, yet all with those defining Cotswold features: golden stone and rolling hills, the ‘wolds’.
The bustling marketing town of Stow-on-the Wold is surrounded by beautiful town houses, independent shops, antiques centres, cosy cafes and inns all built in the mellow local stone.
