When to go
The Cotswolds is charming year-round, but summer is the best time to catch the classic green-meadow vistas. July and August might be a bit more crowded – especially during bank holiday weekends – so aim for May and June.

Tales from our travels
Getting there
-
Planes
Bristol and Birmingham are the nearest airports; fly there from UK cities including Belfast, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Inverness and Newcastle, as well as from Jersey. For international flights, London Heathrow and Gatwick are both under a three-hour drive away. -
Trains
Direct trains from London Paddington run regularly to stations in the Cotswolds, including Chippenham, Gloucester, Kemble, Kingham, Moreton-in-Marsh and Stroud. Most journeys will only take an hour or two. -
Automobiles
From London, the Cotswolds is only a couple of hours away along the M4; the M5 offers access from Bristol and Birmingham. It’s worth taking a car to the region – there’s no better place for country-lane cruising.
Pubs with rooms in the Cotswolds
Stone floors, low beams, local ales and a kitchen that knows how to work well with the farm down the road: the Cotswolds pub at its best is a fine art.
Our collection of pubs with rooms finds the ones that have the bedrooms to match — no chintz, no compromise.
Budget boutique hotels in the Cotswolds
The Cotswolds doesn't have to cost the earth. Our collection of affordable boutique hotels finds the places that deliver on comfort, location and style in spades - without hitting you with a bill to match at the end of your stay.
Dog-friendly hotels in the Cotswolds
Footpaths from the door, cosy pooch-friendly village pubs and countryside designed for long afternoon walks: the Cotswolds definitely does dogs.
Our collection of pet-friendly hotels finds the boltholes that match — where four-legged guests are as well-catered for as the ones holding the lead (and nobody minds about a muddy paw print or two).
