Itinerary

Discover the secrets of the Cotswolds on this excellent break staying in the beautiful spa town of Cheltenham

Sudeley Castle

Explore Sudeley Castle, the hidden gem of the Cotswolds and famed as the only private castle in England to have a Queen buried in the grounds – Katherine Parr, the sixth wife of Henry VIII. Surrounded by the stunning Cotswold Hills, Sudeley Castle has a turbulent history with royal connections dating back over 1000 years. Our time here is free to explore the Castle rooms and exhibitions, stroll through 10 different gardens and visit St Mary’s Church, where Queen Katherine is buried

Cotswolds exploration with guide

Spend the day with a local guide onboard the coach, who will delight us with stories of the history and magic of the area as we travel through some of the most famous Cotswold villages: Broadway, Chipping Camden, Stow on the Wold and Bourton on the Water, with stops and guided walks enroute. We also enjoy a delicious cream tea at Stow on the Wold

Chavenage

Experience a taste of Cornwall in the Cotswolds! Chavenage is a historic Elizabethan manor house and was used as the filming location for Trenwith in the recent BBC series Poldark among others. Here we have a guided tour to learn more about this stunning building and its history
