Cotswolds Tours & Holidays

There are several ways to travel to the Cotswolds regardless of where in the United Kingdom you travel from.

One of the main ways, and perhaps the easiest way, to travel to the Cotswolds is via the British Rail network. Trains run to the Cotswolds from London and other areas of England, with rail stations in major towns in the Cotswolds, including Moreton-in-Marsh and Cheltenham.

You can also drive to the Cotswolds via the national motorway network.

You can fly into Birmingham or Bristol airports, rent a car and make the 1-1.5 hour drive to the Cotswolds. 

The weather in the United Kingdom is primarily rainy and overcast for most of the year, and the temperature in the Cotswolds is no different.

That's not to say the weather in the Cotswolds never gets warm or sunny because it does (especially in Summer). However, the region is more likely to experience cold temperatures.

What to pack for your trip to the Cotswolds depends on what season you're going in.

It can get quite warm in the Summer, so items like T-shirts, dresses, shorts, skirts, and pants are all suitable. However, you still want to pack a cardigan or a light jacket because the temperatures can be cooler in the evenings.

If you travel in Winter, it's best to pack clothes that keep you nice and warm - think scarves, gloves, coats and thick jackets.

No matter what season you're travelling in, it's also wise to pack an umbrella, as rainfall can occur throughout the year. 

Located in the Southcentral, West Midlands, and South West areas of England, the Cotswolds is a region that spans over 800 square miles encompassing several counties, including Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire.

Various towns and villages are situated within this region, all with the same characterising features of rolling hills and honey-coloured, stone architecture.

The Cotswolds is a popular spot for a weekend away, perfect for outdoor enthusiasts and history buffs.

You're spoiled for choice when enjoying nature in the Cotswolds.
