Cotswolds revisited


Saturday 16 August - Another trip to the Cotswolds to visit some of the villages we previously passed by or through but didn't have time to visit. It was a bit of a rough start to the morning but we eventually got on the road, heading north to the Cotwolds. Our first stop was the busy town of Tetbury where we walked around the market and visited some of the shops. The place was chock-a-block with antiques shops and quite a few gardening shops as well. Back to the car and on to Bourton on the water. A charming village with a picturesque stream running through the village and delicate footbridges spanning it, however the place was heaving with tourists and it was difficult to enjoy the scenery or even to walk around. We stopped for a quick lunch of fish n' chips and a meander around the town then made our way to the Slaughters.
