The Cotswolds with Rothschild Wine Tasting Experience Small Group
Overview
Embark on a journey through the Cotswolds, from the historic charm of Stow-on-the-Wold to Chipping Norton, a real, working Cotswold market town. Cap off your adventure with self guided tour at the opulent Waddesdon Manor. Here you may choose to enjoy a Cream Tea in The Stables Café.
Delve into the town's rich past, from its strategic location on the Roman Fosse Way to its
pivotal role in the English Civil War, witnessed by the battle scars still visible today. Visit St Edward’s Church, once a makeshift prison for defeated Royalist troops, and admire its iconic 'Tolkienesque' North Door, said to have inspired the 'Doors of Durin' in the Lord of the Rings.
Join us on a journey through centuries of history and legend in this picturesque Cotswolds gem, where every corner tells a story waiting to be discovered.
