If you imagine traveling through dreamy landscapes, through small villages in the English countryside with cottages with fireplaces, the Cotswolds is your place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to the most beautiful villages in England, or so they say. Shall we discover them together? <\/p>\n\n\n

Travel to the Cotswolds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The beauty of these villages is not the only thing that will catch your attention, its people and its gastronomy will also catch your attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to choosing which villages to visit in the Cotswolds, planning a route is difficult, because there are many villages in this area of England, each with its own beauty, with its own characteristics, so it will depend on the amount of days you have for the tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A stopover in one of the villages is a great option to spend several days touring the surrounding area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But not all of us are lucky enough to have several days, in our particular case only one, so we chose to stay very close to the area in Stratford Upon Avon<\/a> <\/strong><\/em>(Shakespeare’s hometown).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25ba <\/em><\/strong>If you want to visit the English countryside and do not want to complicate your trip, you can choose an organized tour from London visiting Oxford and Stratfors Upon Avon.<\/em><\/strong>, is also an option.<\/em><\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choosing accommodation in the Cotswolds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Choosing a hotel in any of the towns is also quite a task, since they all have a very special charm, with English breakfasts and a personalized service, since most of the accommodations are B&Bs run by their owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our case, we did not stay in the Cotswolds as we were traveling, so we chose to stay at the b&b Virginia Lodge in Stratford Upon Avon. <\/strong><\/a>b&b Virginia Lodge, in Stratford Upon Avon.<\/a><\/strong>.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n
