The Official Guide to Cotswolds Breaks and Holidays

The Cotswolds area is one of England's favourite destinations; famous for hundreds of honey-colour limestone villages in a beautiful rural setting.

There's lots on in the Cotswolds this summer, from football in the river in Bourton on the Water, to Cotswold gardens in full bloom (enter the Handmade Gardens competition) and festivals aplenty, including the Cheltenham Literature Festival. The autumn season is approaching, and with two arboreta and a range of beautiful gardens, autumn in the Cotswolds is not to be missed.
