The Cotswold Way: Chipping Campden to Broadway
Start your walking holiday somewhere beautiful
Enjoy the countryside panoramas as you walk along field paths and woodland trails, taking in picturesque Cotswold stone villages and towns. Make sure to bring your camera, as when the sunlight hits the honey-coloured stone, it’s simply beautiful.
Whether you are walking the whole route or enjoying a shorter circular walk which travels part way along the Cotswold Way, our cottages are perfectly positioned to allow for luxurious stop-offs and some relaxing nights by the fire.
Plan your route, and make sure to put your feet up, too.
