DAY ONE – Arrival

We depart from your home and travel to Stratford-upon-Avon arriving at the Charlecote Pheasant Hotel late afternoon.

 

DAY TWO – Sudeley Castle & Gardens and Cheltenham

This morning we visit the fantastic Sudeley Castle & Gardens, located in the heart of the Cotswolds. Sudeley Castle & Gardens hosts exhibits containing fascinating treasures, from ancient Roman times to the present day. Outside, the castle is surrounded by a breath-taking 1,200-acre estate and ten award-winning gardens. The centrepiece is the Queens Garden, a must-see on this excursion. This afternoon, we visit the Spa town of Cheltenham, located just outside of the Cotswolds. Walk down the Promenade which is considered one of the most beautiful in the country, with its tree lined avenue flanked by smart shops and cafés.

 

DAY THREE – Hidcote Manor Garden and Stratford-upon-Avon

After breakfast, we head for Hidcote Manor Garden, an Arts and Crafts garden in the north Cotswolds, a stone’s throw from Stratford-upon-Avon. Explore the maze of narrow paved pathways and discover secret gardens, magnificent vistas and plants that burst with colour. Later this afternoon we travel to Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of Shakespeare. We have plenty of time to wander the streets looking for a bargain in an independent store, or maybe visit Shakespeare’s birthplace to learn more about the man himself.

 

DAY FOUR – Painswick Rococo Garden and Gloucester

Painswick Rococo Garden, the only surviving garden of the rococo period open to the public. Instead of an orderly flower garden, this is a haven of peace and tranquillity to explore, with quirky features sprinkled around to tickle your fancy. Gloucester is next this afternoon, where we can enjoy the afternoon amongst the pretty cityscapes. Perhaps visit the quayside and dockyards and the museums, or maybe enjoy lunch in the town or visit the high street for some retail therapy.

 

DAY FIVE – Departure

After breakfast this morning we leave our hotel and make our journey home with comfort stops en route.
