• Bourton-on-the-Water - Bourton is a beloved destination, with the serene River Windrush flowing through the heart of the village, crossed by charming little bridges. The village exudes charm year-round, but staying overnight offers a special experience as you can enjoy the village in the evening after the day visitors have left.

There is plenty to see in Bourton-on-the-Water, making it ideal for visitors of all ages, especially families. Birdland Park and Gardens is home to a diverse array of exotic birds, including penguins, flamingos, macaws, emus, and birds of prey. The Model Village, a 1/9th scale replica of the village center, showcases incredible detail. Additionally, the Cotswold Motoring Museum features seven unique galleries with a collection of vintage cars.

• Broadway - Broadway offers excellent eateries, independent shops and galleries, welcoming accommodations, stunning Cotswold countryside, numerous attractions, and activities including the delightful Children’s Activity Park, Broadway Tower, Broadway Museum & Art Gallery, GWSR Heritage Railway, local events, and more.

Often called the ‘Jewel of the Cotswolds’, Broadway village is situated beneath Fish Hill on the western Cotswold escarpment in Worcestershire, near the Gloucestershire border. It is just 2 hours from central London and easily accessible from Stratford, Warwick, Cheltenham, Oxford, and Bath. Beautiful in every season, Broadway attracts travelers from around the globe.

• Snowshill - Snowshill is a picturesque village nestled in the Cotswold hills, renowned for its unspoiled beauty and breathtaking views over the Severn Vale to the west. The village is home to Snowshill Manor, a stunning building owned by the National Trust. Its enchanting gardens house the eclectic collections of Sir Charles Wade, including toys, musical instruments, clocks, bicycles, samurai armor, and more. The cottage garden is a vibrant mix of architectural features, bright colors, and delightful scents, creating a truly captivating atmosphere.
• Chipping Campden - Often described as the ‘jewel in the crown’ of the Cotswold towns, Chipping Campden is a well-preserved and historically significant town dating back to the late 12th century. The town’s original layout is still visible along the High Street, which was an important trading route. The word ‘chipping’ refers to the market, and the Market Hall, built in 1627 by Sir Baptist Hicks, was originally used for the sale of cheese, butter, and poultry. At the north end of the town, the Church of St. James, one of the finest ‘wool’ churches in the Cotswolds, stands. Built with money from the thriving wool trade, it is famous for having one of the oldest altar tapestries and the largest brass in England. Next to the church are the gates of Campden House, which suffered significant damage during the Civil War. The Court Barn Museum in the town tells the story of craft and design in the Cotswolds. In 1902, C R Ashbee brought the Guild of Handicraft to the Old Silk Mill in the town.
• Lower Slaughter - Upper and Lower Slaughter - the slightly macabre name comes from the Old English for ‘muddy place’ - are linked by the tiny River Eye, a tributary to the River Windrush.

A stroll alongside the stream in Lower Slaughter feels like a privilege. People actually live here! Lower Slaughter Mill & café is well worth a visit. A mill was recorded here in the Domesday Book of 1086.

Upper Slaughter is equally charming and is one of only 14 ‘doubly sainted’ villages in England, villages that lost no men during either World War I or II.

• Stow-on-the-Wold - The Market Square is a large and impressive area that reflects the town’s former significance. It is surrounded by townhouses, independent shops, antique centers, cozy cafes, and inns, all built in the local stone. Over many centuries, it has been the focal point of town life, with the medieval market stocks at one end, the ancient market cross at the other, and the impressive St. Edward’s Hall standing in the center.

This square has a long history and played a significant role in the English Civil War. The Battle of Stow-on-the-Wold, fought at nearby Donnington in 1646, marked the defeat of the last royalist field army. St. Edward’s Church was used as a prison for the defeated Royalist troops because it was the only lockable building in the town. Additionally, St. Edward’s Church is famous for its ‘Tolkienesque’ North Door flanked by two ancient yew trees, which supposedly inspired the ‘Doors of Durin’ in the Lord of the Rings.

• Broadway Tower - Broadway Tower – the Cotswolds’ highest castle.
  The tower’s fabulous location with views over 16 counties brings with it enormous exposure to the elements and so requires constant care and maintenance. Vital work took place in 2021 to preserve and protect its distinctive features for many years to come.

The interior of the Tower has been renovated to reflect its late Georgian and Victorian heritage. Visitors can take a step back in time and imagine themselves as part of the Tower’s colorful history with the help of our new multimedia tour and guide book. A visit to Broadway Tower offers something for everyone:

• Explore the history of the Tower and its notable residents
• Enjoy a friendly welcome at the Morris & Brown café and shop

• Stanway House & Fountain - Stanway is a beautiful honey-colored Cotswold village featuring a Jacobean house that has only changed hands once since AD715.

The garden boasts a series of striking terraced lawns and a rare, picturesque grasswork leading up to the pyramid. In the 18th century, there was a noteworthy cascade that stretched 623 feet, descending to a formal canal on the terrace. This garden feature, likely designed by Charles Bridgeman, surpassed its famous rival at Chatsworth in both length and height (118 feet). Inside the house, there is a captivating painting depicting the cascade as it appeared in the 18th century.

In 1998, restoration efforts brought back the canal, the upper pond, a short section of the cascade, and the upper fall behind the pyramid. Additionally, a 300-foot high single-jet fountain, which is the tallest garden fountain in the world, was added.
