Cotswolds holiday cottages, set near rolling hillsides and sleepy hamlets offer great opportunities to escape the stresses of everyday life. The Cotwolds' plush landscape, punctuated by the Windrush, Coln and Evenlode streams is also well-suited to ramblers and casual walkers with a number of trails and paths that wind through the region. Details about Cotswolds cottages follows this guide.
The Cotswold Way is a 100 mile trail that runs between Chipping Campden and Bath offering magnificent views of Cotswolds' varied countryside. Beechwood trees grow in abundance around this part of the world and provide a colourful backdrop to the attractive surroundings.
Surrounding villages such as Bourton-on-the-water are rich in history and English character. Set on the Windrush river, Bourton-on-the-water is a town of low bridges and Cotswold stone houses. Although busy in the summer, it is one of the most picturesque towns in the Cotswolds region.
Chipping Campden is one of the oldest towns and nestles in the hills. It has a 15th Century church as well a Jacobean market hall and like Cotswolds, is steeped in history.
