Cotswolds

The world-famous university towns of Oxford and Cambridge and the birthplace of Shakespeare, Stratford-upon-Avon, make this area a real treat. 

In the Heart of England we recommend:  

  • Attending Evensong in one of the Cambridge College Chapel 
  • Visiting Ely Cathedral 
  • Punting on the river Cherwell in Oxford  
  • Visiting Anne Hathaway’s cottage, the childhood home of his wife   
  • A backstage tour of the Royal Shakespeare company before an evening performance 
  • Going back in history at Warwick Castle
