A driving tour of the area must be a good starting point to exploring the Cotswolds. We can offer advice and a range of guidebooks to take in most of the famous north Cotswold villages, as well as many of the less renowned but unique and charming. We can also provide a printed route starting from Lowerfield Farm, based upon what is known as the Cotswolds Romantic Road tour.
Cycling
This area is very popular with cyclists, and bringing your bicycles or renting a bike is a great way of getting around. We can recommend a good bicycle rental place in Chipping Campden which provides all safety equipment and will even drop off at the guesthouse if required.
Horse riding
The Cotswolds is excellent horse riding country and there are some good stables nearby at which to take lessons or go for a ride in the countryside.
One stables at Stanton, south of Broadway, can arrange for lessons or a hack (ride in the countryside) at any level. The stables is at the foot of the escarpment, and hacks take riders onto a web of bridleways up on the hills.
Golf
There are a number of good golf courses in the local area, the most striking of which is the 18 hold Broadway course, with a history going back over 100 years. The course is set high on the escarpment, with stunning views from many of the tees and fairways.
Fishing
The most notable local fishing is probably on the Avon, which is renowned for its course fishing of perch, chub, roach and beam. Evesham hosts the Wychavon Angling Festival in August each year.
