From afternoon cream teas overlooking rolling countryside to local beers supped by a crackling fire to guided tours of sun-drenched vineyards, the Cotswolds has something for everyone. Whether you are a Cotswold Cider fan, into your Cotswold Brewing Company beers or looking for something a little softer, crack open the proverbial lid and see what all the fuss is about.
If tea is your thing, visit Broadway’s Tisanes Tea Rooms where you can sample over thirty different teas, or enjoy a Royal experience with cream tea at Highgrove Gardens. For wine-lovers, visit Woodchester Valley Vineyard, Three Choirs Vineyard or the Poulton Hill, whose 8,800 vines can produce up to 20,000 bottles of wine a year!
A great way to sample lots of local soft and alcoholic drinks, the Costwold Show and Food Festival held in July is a must-visit, packed full of family-friendly activities and attractions. In the same month, the Cotswold Beer Festival showcases over 100 beers, ciders and perries.
