Bourton-on-the-Water
Bourton lies on a river, the Windrush, which meanders its way through the heart of the village flanked by long, wide greens. The several bridges which arch across the water have given Bourton its nickname of “The Venice of the Cotswolds”.
Sudeley Castle
Sudeley Castle, nestled in the Cotswold hills, is a Grade I listed castle with a rich history dating back to the 15th century. Visitors can explore 10 award-winning gardens, historic exhibitions, and castle rooms that include a 1000-year timeline of the castle’s past. The castle is also the final resting place of Queen Catherine Parr, the sixth wife of King Henry VIII, making it unique as a privately owned castle with a Queen of England buried on its grounds.
