Dolce Tempo Journey among Castles, Gardens & the Cotswold Way
Thousand-year-old villages. Honey-colored limestone homes. Cozy pubs and peaceful tea rooms. Placid rivers and lush hillsides dotted with sheep. Things move slowly in the Cotswolds. After all, why change what’s worked for centuries? There’s a pleasing arithmetic to life here. Ramble the countryside in the morning. Stop by the pub for lunch. Like 1+1=2, it just works. We promise—it can really be that simple.
Highlights
- Enjoy classic footpaths that wind through forgotten forests and deserted hillsides, along cobbled streets and past crumbling castles and medieval churches
- Amble leisurely, with plenty of chances to say hello to the locals and admire beautiful gardens along the route—the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in English country life
- Stroll through quaint towns, experience the local pub culture, browse shops on lively main streets, and savor unforgettable views of the Brecon Beacons and the Black Mountains
- Discover British hospitality at our premiere hotels, where modern service meets tradition—from a palatial 15th-century country manor to a renovated estate in the heart of an English village
