The tour

Cotswolds

The Cotswolds have almost no public transport, which is exactly why a chauffeur makes the difference. In one day you can see three or four honey-stone villages, stop where the light is good, and have lunch somewhere with a fire rather than a coach park.

Why this tour

  • Villages are ten to twenty minutes apart on lanes no coach can use.
  • Your chauffeur adjusts the running order to avoid the busiest villages at the busiest hour.
  • Lunch can be a pub, a manor hotel or a farm shop — we book it if you would like.

Key stops

  • Bibury and Arlington Row
  • Bourton-on-the-Water
  • Stow-on-the-Wold
  • Lower and Upper Slaughter
  • Optional Burford or Castle Combe

Questions

Cotswolds: frequently asked

How many villages can we see in a day?
Three or four comfortably. More than that turns the day into driving rather than visiting.
Can you book lunch?
Yes. Tell us the style you want and we will arrange a table; the bill is settled by you on the day.
Is it worth combining with Oxford or Bath?
Oxford pairs well as a ten-hour day. Bath and the Cotswolds is a twelve-hour day and confirmed by our team before booking.
