With iconic honey-coloured stone holiday cottages, rolling hills, delicious local produce and cosy country pubs, the Cotswolds are recognised as one of the most picturesque and historic areas in the UK.

Iconic Cotswolds stone holiday homes

The Cotswolds sits upon a base of limestone which provides the traditional grey and brown stone for the countless cosy rentals that sit within the landscape.

And a lovely, lush, green English garden is practically guaranteed!
