Lower Slaughter
Perhaps unfortunately named, the slaughters really delivered the Cotswold charm that we were seeking. We parked in Lower Slaughters by the church, which was small but housed some lovely stained glass. The river passed nearby and we followed it a bit as it passed along a hotel. We spotted trout in the river which had impressively clear water that was moving quickly. We doubled back along the river passing charming stone cottages festooned with summer flowers. The river leads to the old mill fitted with an old fashioned wooden water wheel and a brick smoke stack. At the old mill we perused the shop which had gifts and garden supplies and the best strawberry ice cream I have ever had before walking up the road to Upper Slaughter.
