Walk the Cotswold Way |
The Cotswold Way is 102 miles long, so no one expects you to walk the whole thing - at least not on a single spa break. However, a walk in this magnificent countryside is definitely worth including in your trip, and the Cotswold Way is a good place to start. Running from the quintessentially English market town of Chipping Campden to the Roman city of Bath, you can pick a section of the national trail and walk as far as you fancy, enjoying the scenery and plenty of places to stop along the way. |
