The English Cotswolds - Including Stratford and Shakespeare Country
If you’re planning a visit to the English Cotswolds, you’ll find this guide to be a valuable resource.
The English Cotswolds are a chain of undulating, limestone foothills that encompass a quiet, idyllic world of sleepy little towns and villages nestled among the hills and dales.
Rising to just over 1,000 feet at the highest point on Cleeve Hill, the Cotswolds are spread across a half-dozen West Midland counties, including Gloucestershire, Avon, Wiltshire, Hereford and Worcester and Oxfordshire.
Please allow me to introduce you to my Cotswolds and Shakespeare Country. Yes, we’ll visit all the well-known and not-to-be-missed spots along the way, but I’ll take you to places off the beaten path, places that very few visitors to the Cotswolds ever get to visit.
Chipping Campden, Broadway, Stanton, Stanway, Snowshill, Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold, Naunton, Northleach, Chedworth, The Slaughters, Buckland, Winchcombe, Burford, Cirencester and Bath are just some of the towns we’ll visit.
There’s an air of timelessness among these ancient hills, honey-colored towns, villages and cottages. This, then, was my world, a world quite different to that you’ll find described in the average guide book to the Cotswolds. I see the Cotswolds, even the well-known sites, through different eyes than do the tour guides that steer the visitors from one well-worn site to the next, never deviating from the pre-set tour of what they think you should see. But there’s more, so much more.
The historic sites and attractions we’ll visit along the way include Bellas Knap (an ancient long barrow ”" burial mound), the Rollright Stones (a prehistoric stone circle you’re not likely to find in any other guide book), the lavender farm at Snowshill, the visually stunning ruins of the Roman Villa at Chedworth, Sudeley Castle (home of Queen Catherine Parr, last wife of Henry VIII), the ruins of Hailes Abbey, Broadway Tower, Wells Cathedral, the Great Tithe Barn at Littleton, the Fleece Inn at Bretforton (one of England’s oldest pubs), the Roman Baths at Bath, Wickhamford where you can visit the tomb of one of George Washington’s relatives, and many more too numerous to mention here.
˃˃˃ Okay, now on to Stratford upon Avon and Shakespeare Country
Shakespeare Country encompasses, not only Stratford upon Avon, but most of the western reaches of the county of Warwickshire, along with the historic towns of Warwick, Kenilworth, and a half-a-hundred towns, villages and hamlets. It’s a world unlike any other, historic, peaceful and stunningly beautiful. And then there are the great castles of Warwick and Kenilworth. Both are included, and in detail.
˃˃˃ All The Practical Information You Need
You’ll find information about where to stay and where to eat pubs, inns, hotels and bed & breakfast houses. All the information you need to successfully plan your visit to the Cotswolds and Shakespeare Country.

Visitor Guide to the English Cotswolds 4th Edition eBook Blair Howard
The writing style is folksy and I guess the information is all accurate, but not useful as a tourist guide. Plus, the publication is sloppy, with one page totally blank except a header and under it "To Be Done" or some such thing, not to mention numerous editing errors, including the omission of the first letter of the first word in a new chapter, missing words, words that should have been struck, etc. The added section on Shakespeare country was no better, and the connection between the two made no sense.Product details

Visitor Guide to the English Cotswolds 4th Edition eBook Blair Howard Reviews
excllent guide. We used it well.
. If you like to travel to out of the way places but still want to see the Cotswolds, this is the book to read.. The author describes some of the parts of the area that may not be so busy, names his favorite places to eat, sleep and drink and almost gives you the feeling he is having a conversation with you. He grew up in this area and gives just enough detail to get you interested without overdoing it. Diana
Total disappointment. The Cotswold website is much more informative and accurate. Gave this book to a hotelier to pass on to someone who may not have access to the online counterpart.
This is a great guide for the Cotswolds - lots of off the beaten path places. We took his recommendation for the Plough Inn at Ford and had a lovely dinner. Also went to Northleach and the Wheatsheaf Inn which we would not have known about without the book. Also veered off the main highway to Staunton and discovered a fabulous garden tour that Sunday afternoon along with tea at the manor house garden. Even if you have been to the Cotswolds this would still be a great guide.
So glad you can also download the book on your iPad and get the pictures in color! Also, the author provides you his email so you may contact him directly with questions! So very helpful in planning your trip )
Not overly written, which makes it easier to get through the book. Author is well traveled in the Cotswolds, and I was able to get a clear vision of how I want to arrange my trip. Color pictures would be a great addition to this book.
An enjoyable book, with contact information for places to stay and eat. There are a few 'typo' errors in the book, but nothing that makes it impossible to understand what the author meant. I love the Cotswolds and this book is a good introduction to it for anybody that isn't familiar with the whole of it. The only thing missing from it as far as I was concerned was that it didn't include Hook Norton and the Hook Norton Brewery.
