We begin the video at one of the highest points of The Cotswolds, Broadway tower, you can see for miles over the rolling hills of The Cotswolds and much of this part of England from here, it's also located next to the town of Broadway itself (often known as the jewel of the Cotswolds).
We then head to the hidden gem of Snowshill Manor, many people may not be aware that this exists but it is certainly one to visit, home to an eccentric collector, inside this house you can find artefacts such as samurai armour, hundreds of old bicycles, musical instruments and more!
After this we head to Lacock Abbey, technically just to the south of the Cotswolds but too good not to include, this was the location in which many of the scenes for Harry Potter were filmed, so you will likely recognise them as you stroll around. It's also the location that the first ever photographic negative image was taken, a truly historical and unique place!
We also visit locations such as Tysoe Windmill, Batsford Arboretum, and Upton House, some beautiful hidden gems for a perfect day out. as well as the iconic Castle Combe, possible THE image that you see when you think of the Cotswolds.
