SOUTH COTSWOLDS
TOUR

FULL DAY TOUR EXPLORING CHARMING VILLAGES AND COUNTRYSIDE IN THE SOUTH COTSWOLDS

SOUTH COTSWOLDS TOUR OVERVIEW

The Cotswolds is an area renowned for its beautiful countryside, villages and towns. On this full day tour from Bath we will explore the southern part of the Cotswolds. Driving through its picturesque countryside we will stop to visit charming villages and places with a Royal connection!

​

We will stop at 4 to 5 villages including Castle Combe - the most famous village in the area and once voted England's prettiest village. The other picturesque villages are more off the beaten tourist path meaning fewer crowds! During the tour I will explain about the Cotswolds and tell you stories about the places we see. We will also stop for lunch at a charming village pub.

​

You can expect to see beautiful countryside, charming villages and hear interesting stories!

​

We will return to Bath around 5pm.
