The Cotswolds

The Cotswolds are such a beautiful part of the world. Golden coloured cottages, pretty villages, clear streams, rolling countryside.

Somehow my route choice, trying to see the Cotswolds and yet make it to Leamington Spa by end of day is not the best. I visit Minster Lovell and then aim for Great Tew, a tiny pretty village. Disappointingly it is overwhelmed with visitors and parked cars. It’s a Sunday and there is a fair bit of traffic, even on the tiniest of roads - I regularly have to stop to let the traffic pass. By lunchtime its getting a bit grey and its quite chilly. I soon drop out of the Cotswolds and over less interesting flatter terrain and into Leamington.Leia mais
