The Cotswolds is one of the country’s prettiest regions, full of quaint villages, winding lanes and some top pubs and restaurants.
Being located north-east of Bristol, the Cotswolds is a landlocked area, and consequently a little quieter than the traditional summer holiday destinations, making it a perfect place to visit if you’re looking for some peace and quiet.
The Cotswolds is also a year-round gem – so you’re not restricted to high season only – with plenty of nooks and crannies to explore. Check out these leisurely walks, perfect for discovering this fab region.
Taking the train to the Cotswolds is a simple and stress-free way to visit the area. Starting from several GWR▸ train stations located within the Cotswolds, including Charlbury, Stroud and Moreton-in-Marsh, Cotswolds National Landscape has created downloadable Cotswold Gateways walks to explore the surrounding countryside of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB▸ ) so you can easily discover hidden corners, epic views, historic sites, and a rich diversity of wildlife.
