You will be totally spoiled for images to please the senses in the Cotswolds and in Bath. If the Cotswolds conjures up images for you of chocolate box villages and achingly pretty cottages with honey colour stone, then you will not be disappointed. It seems that every turn in the road bring yet another gorgeous village. The elegance of Bath is also an aesthetic delight. Disover this most beautiful part of England from one of our holiday cottages located in the Cotswolds and Bath.
Some of the Cotswolds villages to visit could include:
The list of incredibly pretty villages could continue unabated. Don’t miss Lower and Upper Slaughter which are actually two extremely pretty villages rather than abattoirs! Great Tew and Little Tew are two more Cotswold villages that you have to see to believe that they are real.
In the beautiful city of Bath you can enjoy the Roman Baths which are a world heritage site. Located at the site of Britain’s only hot spring, the Romans built a magnificent temple and bathing complex that still flows with natural hot water. Today, Roman clad characters tell stories of those who lived and bathed here 2,000 years ago. Visit the Pump Room where the hot spa water is drawn for drinking.
The elegance of The Royal Crescent cannot be overstated. Built between 1767 and 1775, it comprises 30 grade 1 listed houses built in a crescent shape around a great lawn. The Crescent is one of the world’s best known places of residence.
The Pulteney Bridge in central Bath is one of the most beautiful bridges in the world and is one of only a handful of bridges which have shops built into it. Also in central Bath is the glorious Guildhall which is a beautiful Georgian building.
If you have a sweet tooth, then a visit to Sally Lunn’s Refreshment House & Museum is a must. The Sally Lunn Bun is a lovely light semi-sweet bread and the Refreshment House now houses a living museum.
