Overview

Explore two of the most historical sites in England on a private vehicle tour. Visit Shakespeare's Birthplace, Mary Arden's Farm, and Anne Hathaway's Cottage. Discover the childhood home of Shakespeare’s mother and see a 500-year-old cottage.

Begin your tour with a visit to Shakespeare's Birthplace, a restored 16th-century half-timbered house. Then, head to Mary Arden's Farm, the childhood home of Shakespeare’s mother.

Next, visit Anne Hathaway's Cottage, a beautiful 500-year-old cottage. One of the delights of visiting the Cotswolds is exploring the different areas, each with its own identity, yet all with those defining Cotswold features: golden stone and rolling hills.

Enjoy the convenience of a private tour, where all ground services are provided by your very own personal driver, with a private vehicle and chauffeur.

The picturesque Cotswold landscape is completed with hidden river valleys and distinctive market towns and villages made of the famous Cotswold stone. Many Cotswold villages have enigmatic names such as The Slaughters, Stow-on-the-Wold,
