Highlights
  • Bourton-on-the-Water - Bourton lies on a river, the Windrush, which meanders its way through the heart of the village flanked by long, wide greens. The several bridges which arch across the water have given Bourton its nickname of “The Venice of the Cotswolds”.
  • Sudeley Castle - Sudeley Castle, nestled in the Cotswold hills, is a Grade I listed castle with a rich history dating back to the 15th century. Visitors can explore 10 award-winning gardens, historic exhibitions, and castle rooms that include a 1000-year timeline of the castle’s past. The castle is also the final resting place of Queen Catherine Parr, the sixth wife of King Henry VIII, making it unique as a privately owned castle with a Queen of England buried on its grounds.
  • Lower Slaughter - As we journey through the heart of the Cotswolds, our next stop is the enchanting village of Lower Slaughter. Here, the Slaughters Manor House stands as a testament to history and luxury, inviting us to step back in time. Just a stone’s throw away, Copse Hill Road unfolds like a scene from a storybook, its title as the UK’s most romantic street well-deserved. This leg of our tour promises a serene and utterly romantic experience, capturing the essence of the English countryside.
  • Bibury - Bibury is a quintessential Cotswold village located in Gloucestershire, England. Often described as “the most beautiful village in England” by the artist William Morris, Bibury is particularly known for Arlington Row, a picturesque street of 17th-century weavers’ cottages. These iconic cottages, originally built as a monastic wool store, are now among the most photographed homes in the country
