Rambling in the Cotswolds

Rambling in the Cotswolds

The Cotswolds covers a huge area – almost 800 square miles – and runs through five counties (Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire, Wiltshire and Worcestershire). 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’. Our new and different walking tour discovers the famous honeyed hue of the classical Cotswolds villages and delightful gems off the beaten track.

Your Itinerary

Friday 21st: We leave during the morning and travel to the Hallmark, Gloucester for check-in. Tea, coffee and biscuits will be served on arrival.

Saturday 22nd: Today’s guided walk starts at Snowshill, which leads you to Stanton and Cotswold Edge and are two of the most picturesque villages in the Cotswolds. The walk will cover 6 miles, which will be over hilltops, down valleys and through shaded woodlands. Whilst a slightly challenging walk in places, you will enjoy some of the most splendid views of this beautiful area of England.

The walks on this tour are classed as intermediate
