subject: Relax And Revitalise In The Cotswolds [print this page] Situated in the ever popular south west area of England, the Cotswolds is, for the most part, an unspoilt section of the country and is one of the most beautifully scenic places anywhere in the United Kingdom.
Whilst many people now refer to the entire area as the Cotswolds, inclusive of all of the small, surrounding villages, traditionally, the Cotswolds refers to the selection of hills that run primarily in Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire, but continue through into four other counties (Somerset, Warwickshire, Wiltshire and Worcestershire). Although this may be the definitive meaning, the majority of people know and love the whole area that surrounds these hills, so often nicknamed the Heart of England.
If a visit to the Cotswolds is made (which it is highly recommended to do so), then the primary point on any itinerary should not to be trying to fit in seeing as many attractions as possible, but to simply relax and live life for the length of the stay at the pace that everyone in the area does.
Exuding somewhat of a natural, peaceful aura, a holiday in the Cotswolds should be filled with walks through the breathtaking countryside or along one of the many rivers, stopping every once in a while to sample a local beer or freshly produced foods in the traditional English pubs that are a focal point of many of the smaller villages.
Deciding where to stay in the Cotswolds should not pose too much of a problem for most. Not for the fact that there is not a substantial amount of choice, but for the fact that the majority of Cotswolds hotels are of such a high quality, any hotel that is chosen will very rarely be a bad choice.
It must be remembered that when looking at Cotswolds hotels, the vast majority of them are small in size and so large hotel chains should not be expected to be seen. They are apparent, primarily in the larger towns, but it is strongly recommended that if staying in one of the many Cotswolds hotels that are available, one that is small, quaint and serene is chosen, so to truly feel the atmosphere of the area.
Of course, with an area as large and as open as the Cotswolds, staying in a hotel is not the only accommodation option and there are copious amounts of caravan parks and camping sites available to utilize. Popular with seasoned touring caravan owners due to the reason that one cannot get any closer to the astounding beauty of the Cotswolds countryside than actually hooking up a caravan in one of the caravan parks in the countryside itself, there is something extremely fulfilling and relaxing about being so close to such a wonderful part of the country.
Regarded by many from all across the globe as being one of the most unspoilt and attractive places anywhere in the world, the Cotswolds offers the opportunity for any visitors to rewind, relax and revitalize in an area of the country that is as beautiful today as it was centuries ago.
