We travel with a professional driver out to visit some of the most picturesque Cotswolds villages and Oxford or Blenheim Palace. I have been visiting the Cotswolds since I was a child and its beauty never disappoints. This customised tour includes visits to a selection of picture postcard Cotswold villages. We will see cottages, churches and pubs built with local stone in this area of outstanding natural beauty. Also, villages with links to the world of TV and film, like Downton Abbey, and other unspoilt villages on the back roads well off the beaten track. After some lunch in a pub or cafe, we head into Oxford to explore this university 'City of Dreaming Spires' with its colleges, parks, castle and indoor market, there is much to discover and those interested in history, culture and Harry Potter will not be disappointed. We return to London early evening. An alternative to Oxford is to visit Churchill's birthplace, Blenheim Palace. An impressive stately home on a grand scale
Here is a typical day. Tours can be customised to suit your needs - Pick up in London and travel 1. 5 hours to visit the medieval village of Burford, Gateway to the Cotswolds. Spend time exploring the village. Lots of wonderful photo opportunities here! - Next stop, Bibury, 15 minutes away, described as the "most beautiful village in England" and then there is a choice of so many villages - busy Stow-on-the-Wold, peaceful Lower Slaughter, Bourton-on-the-Water with its shops and cafes and Bampton where scenes from Downton Abbey were filmed. - Following lunch, we head for Oxford and there is an option of a walking tour including Christ Church College, The Radcliffe Camera, The Divinity School, historic museums, churches and pubs, a castle and an indoor market. - There is also the option of visiting magnificent Blenheim Palace, close to Oxford, ancestral home of the Duke of Marlborough, where you can experience a British stately home at its most impressive. - Journey back to London (1. 5 hrs) early evening
