Discover England: Cotswolds to the Cornwall Coast

  • Enjoy England's most charming duo in one trip: the Cotswolds and coastal Cornwall
  • Stroll the storybook villages of Stow-on-the-Wold and Bourton-on-the-Water
  • Meander through quintessential English meadows and woodlands
  • Follow the Pilgrim's Way to St. Michael's Mount, a legendary coastal landmark
  • Explore Bath, a UNESCO listed city rich in Roman history & Georgian architecture
Discover the best of southern England on this private self-guided tour, as you journey from the Cotswolds to the Cornwall coast by rail and on foot. Begin your adventure in the Cotswolds, where charming villages, rolling hills, and cozy country pubs beckon. Wander through idyllic chocolate-box hamlets, with honey-stone cottages and babbling brooks before heading to the UNESCO-listed city of Bath. Immerse yourself in 2,000 years of history at its Roman Baths, marvel at its golden Georgian architecture, or visit the ancient site of Stonehenge and uncover its enduring mysteries. Next, swap your hiking boots for one of England’s most scenic rail lines along the dramatic southwest coast to Cornwall. Stay in the artistic harbor town of St Ives and the historic coastal village of Marazion, soaking up the local culture, rich traditions, and Celtic heritage. Connect with your spiritual side as you set out on the St Michael’s Way, a coast-to-coast, micro-pilgrimage once walked by pilgrims bound for Santiago de Compostela, following paths that have inspired generations. Then cap things off with a free day on St Michael’s Mount, wander down its cobbled causeway, explore the castle and finish with a classic English cream tea overlooking the bay. Epic!
