Hidden Gems in the Cotswolds


While the Cotswolds are famous worldwide, the Hidden Gems of the Cotswolds remain known only to true locals. With our deep-rooted knowledge of the area, we hold these treasures close—but when you join us, we’re delighted to share them. From quiet lanes to timeless traditions, the reality of your experience will far exceed your expectations.

Picture yourself strolling down Broadway High Street, venturing onto Kennel Lane to meet the charming foxhounds tucked away behind the bustle. Imagine stepping onto our family farm, where English farming traditions thrive in harmony with the preservation of the land for generations to come. Explore a secluded church adorned with medieval wall paintings or walk in the footsteps of Jane Austen as she visited her uncle.

Marvel at the house where Lewis Carroll dreamt up the whimsical world of Alice in Wonderland and discover the gnarled tree trunk that inspired J.R.R. Tolkien. Savor a mouthwatering lunch in a historic countryside pub or pack a selection of treats from a local deli for a picturesque picnic amid rolling fields.

As locals whose families have called the Cotswolds home for centuries, we bring a rich tapestry of stories that connect our heritage with the history of this remarkable region. With us, your day will be uniquely tailored to your interests, taking you far beyond the usual tourist trails to uncover the true hidden treasures of the Cotswolds.
