This entire region has been designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and it’s easy to see why. From wide-open sandy beaches back dropped by rare dune ecosystems to towering cliffs, this area combines endangered flora and fauna with over 7,000 years of human history to create a unique landscape. And no matter what time of the year you visit this part of the country, you are bound to be captured by its beauty. 

The Cotswolds is great walking country with over 5000km of footpaths and rights of way.
For serious walkers, the Cotswold Way and Thames Path are on offer. For recreational walkers, most towns and villages have a choice of shorter circular routes.
