Cream of the
Cotswolds
& the Mendip Hills - England Coach Tours - 5 Days
Tour Highlights
• Best of the Cotswolds and Mendip Hills
countryside • Moreton-in-Marsh market
• Bourton-on-the-Water • Cheddar Gorge • Wells • Bath
Explore some of England’s most treasured landscapes, where mellow stone-built towns and
villages are tucked away amidst rolling limestone hills. The Cotswolds became prosperous
with the medieval wool trade, when fine churches and manor houses were built, unspoilt to
this day. The Mendips, rising from the tiny cathedral city of Wells, are riddled with impressive
caverns and ravines, culminating in spectacular Cheddar Gorge. This is coach touring country
at its best - perfect for a relaxing short break.
