Imagine a typical English countryside with honey-coloured brick houses, flowers in bloom and sheep grazing as far as the eye can see. No meccas far and wide, no Starbucks just cosy cafes and stylish guesthouses. Well, that's exactly what the Cotswolds is, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful areas in the whole of England.
Not surprisingly, many of the villages and specific houses and nooks and crannies have served as film locations, so you may actually "know" the Cotswolds already. You may have seen snippets of it in films such as the Bond film Don't Die Today, the TV series Downtown Manor, or the more recent (and my favourite) Slow Horses and Stardust, among many others.
