Spend four days rambling over the rolling hills and through the woods and fields of the storybook Cotswolds of southern England. We will stay at lovely country inns in picturesque villages with thatched-roof houses and manicured gardens filled with spring flowers. Our daily walks of 4-11 miles are van supported. This trip also features days in London, Bath, and Stratford-Upon-Avon, and a visit to the Neolithic stone circles of Stonehenge and Avebury.
