Rolling landscapes, dry stone walls, perpendicular churches and sparkling clear streams fuse with tiny villages and hamlets with their charming limestone houses, tea shops and inns. Our full day tour of the Cotswolds begins in Burford, where the magnificent High Street, which slopes down to the River Windrush, holds every variety of Cotswold stone. There will be time to visit the small tea houses before heading north to Stow-on-the-wold. LUNCH IN THE OLDEST PUB IN BRITAIN: Lunch beckons and what better way to satisfy your hunger than with a fabulous two course lunch in the Royalist Hotel, the oldest inn in Britain, built in 947 AD, over 1,000 years ago! The restaurant boasts a spectacular oak beamed ceiling, a huge stone fireplace bearing witches marks and a fabulous range of traditional cooking including mouth-watering apple and raspberry crumble. STRATFORD UPON AVON: The afternoon is spent exploring Moreton-in-marsh which has a unique buzz and is also home to the Cotswolds falconry centre before heading north west and out of the Cotswolds to the delightful Stratford-Upon-Avon. Here we enjoy a small walk through the city centre passing Shakespeares Birthplace before we enjoy cream tea in the charming Garrick Inn built in the 14th Century.
