England

The Cotswolds

The Cotswolds do golden-stone storybook England — Arlington Row at Bibury is on the cover of half the nation's picture books — but the family magic lies in the working attractions: Cotswold Farm Park lets children bottle-feed lambs and meet rare breeds, and dozens of farm B&Bs hand over morning egg duty as standard.

Why go

Honey-stone villages, pub fires, misty morning walks that end in enormous breakfasts — the Cotswolds are Britain's most reliable romance machine. The formula: a creaky-floored inn or a spa hotel with robes, one good circular walk, one market town mooch, zero schedule. Aim for midweek off-season, when Bibury and Castle Combe return to their residents and to you.
