Spring is here and with the weather getting better and the days getting longer now is the time to go out and explore the beautiful places around the UK. One of the places that many visitors like to see when they come to the UK is the Cotswolds and it is easy to see why – beautiful villages that look like they are from times gone by, as well as stunning countryside and a range of attractions, there is so much to explore in the area at this time of the year.
To make the most of it, you can get a professional tour like these Cotswolds private tours cotswoldtour.co.uk/cotswolds-private-tours – here are some of the attractions to see in the Cotswolds in the Spring…
Cheese Rolling – The Gloucestershire tradition of Cheese Rolling, held at Coopers Edge takes place on the first bank holiday in May, and attracts lots of spectators, as well as lots of hopeful participants. People run down the steep hill to catch a wheel of cheese – however this is certainly not an activity for the faint hearted as many end up with injuries!
Spring Gardens – With so much beautiful countryside to see of course there are also many stunning gardens. Visit Sudeley Castle, where as well as the historic castle you can see the beautiful gardens in bloom, or head to Westonbirt Arboretum to see all the trees bursting into life.
Chipping Campden Music Festival – This is a festival that was only founded in 2002 yet features some highly regarded classical musicians. The beautiful St James Church is the setting, so if classical music is your thing, you shouldn’t miss this event.
