Guide to the Cotswolds Pub Walks Guidebook

by: Nigel Vile
Discover the unique charm of a world-famous beauty spot with this guide to the best walks in the Cotswolds. There are twenty circular routes here, varying in length from 3 to 6 miles, showcasing stunning countryside, must-see landmarks and hidden gems. At the heart of each walk is a renowned local pub, all of which have been recommended for their good food and warm welcome.

Explore the picture-postcard villages of Bourton-on-the-Water, Guiting Power, the quiet lanes above the Upper Frome Valley around Sapperton and Miserden, and the far-reaching views of the high wolds above Northleach and Hillesley. You'll uncover golden stone cottages alongside tranquil rivers, sheltered valleys, ancient woodland and some spectacular views that make the classic English landscape of the Cotswolds such a great place to walk.

The pocket-size book is printed in full colour and includes colour photographs of some of the pubs and places visited. Each of the walk entries includes walk summary and highlights, pub details including telephone, web address and post code, how to get to the start, parking information and the relevant OS Explorer map sheet number. The navigation instructions are printed in numbered paragraphs and there are simple sketch maps which also show the paragraph numbers locations. It would be advisable to have the OS map with you.
