The Cotswolds β€” England's Most Beautiful Countryside

The Cotswolds is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty covering approximately 800 square miles across Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire, and Wiltshire. It is England's most visited rural destination β€” renowned for its honey-coloured limestone villages, ancient wool churches, field stone walls, and rolling hills. The nearest Cotswolds villages are approximately 80 miles from London (1.5 hours via M40), making it one of the most popular and accessible day trip destinations from the capital.
