Dotted with sleepy villages and bustling market towns, there are few more beautiful places in England than the Cotswolds. You’ll also find wonderful antiques shops, old-fashioned pubs, stone cottages smothered in roses, 13th-century churches and pretty tea shops filled with old ladies eating homemade scones and drinking Earl Grey tea. Cheerio!
