Der Tag beginnt in Castle Combe, einem der meistfotografierten Dörfer Englands. Seit dem 15. Jahrhundert hat sich hier wenig verändert – weder Straßenlaternen noch Fernsehantennen. Dieses mittelalterliche Juwel ist berühmt für seine malerischen Cottages und den plätschernden Bach. Eingebettet in ein bewaldetes Cotswold-Tal war Castle Combe über die Jahre ein beliebter Drehort für Hollywood-Filme wie „Gefährten“, „Der Sternwanderer“ und „Doktor Dolittle“.

Cirencester is a vibrant town in the heart of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Beauty and affectionately known as the ‘Capital of the Cotswolds. Founded by the Romans, a powerful Abbey in the Middle Ages, and a thriving market town for centuries ever since. Explore the many independent stores, colourful lanes and impressive church.

Stop for a traditional lunch in an historic country inn. Thereafter we continue our journey through the heart of the Cotswolds by visiting some picturesque, hand-picked villages and locations, which are deliberately kept secret. We will avoid the now overrun locations, which have been affected by mass tourism from London. Trust our local expertise to show you the real Cotswolds, give you a unique experience, and to stay ahead of the tour buses and bloggers!

The Cotswolds is famous for it’s quintessentially English country gardens – this peaceful location (also a secret) will certainly charm you. Please note, an alternative stop will be suggested during the shoulder autumn/winter season!
