Berkeley House

Cotswolds, United Kingdom[view map]

Tetbury is a pretty, well-stocked small town of delis, supermarkets and shops. Once parked outside Berkeley House, you’re free to wander on foot to pick up provisions and dip your toes into local pubs.

Best picnics

Westonbirt Arboretum is three miles south of Tetbury on the A433 in Westonbirt (www.forestry.gov.uk/westonbirt). With 17 miles of paths, locals says it’s the UK’s premier arboretum. Its landscaped grounds are the perfect picnicking patch.

Best walks

Follow the Bath Road on foot, back out of Tetbury. Once over the bridge, turn left, clamber across a stile, and head across the fields towards Shipton Moyne. It’s a beautiful, one hour walk that handily ends up at the Cat and Custard Pot Inn (+44 (0)1666 880 249), a favourite pub of Princes William and Harry – and a great Sunday lunch spot.
