Join us in the stunningly beautiful Cotswolds with rolling hills and forested valleys, mellow honey-coloured limestone villages and bustling market towns.
Two guided walks will take you through some of the most spectacular scenery of this region and to some of its hidden gems. You will explore the 18th Century Rococo Gardens hidden deep in the valleys around Painswick, the ‘Queen of the Cotswolds’,with its many fi ne buildings little changed since the days of the medieval wool trade. Wander through the Slad Valley, immortalised by Laurie Lee in his book ‘Cider with Rosie’, and enjoy the scenery he talks about so passionately.
A great way to spend a couple of days exploring this delightful region, right on your doorstep.
