Tips from the Community
During our short holiday on the edge of the Cotswolds, we stumbled upon Hidcote Manor Garden by chance. And we can say: it was one of the most beautiful garden designs we have ever seen. Every meter opens up a new perspective, new impressions, and new lighting conditions. We walked through the garden rooms in awe and are thrilled. Wikipedia writes: "The Hidcote Manor Garden is an English park in the Arts & Crafts style.[1] It is located in Hidcote Bartrim in the northeast of Chipping Campden in the county of Gloucestershire. The garden was created from 1907 by the American privateer Lawrence Waterbury Johnston and has belonged to the National Trust since 1948. Characteristic of the garden, which covers more than 40,000 square meters, are above all the division into different garden rooms, English Outdoor Rooms, the sightlines, English Vistas, the artfully trimmed shrubs, as well as the red perennial beds, English Red Borders. The Hidcote Manor Garden is located on a 183 m high plateau on the northern edge of the Cotswolds. Belonging to the county of Gloucestershire and located on the border with the county of Warwickshire, Hidcote is approximately two kilometers east of Mickleton, approximately seven kilometers northeast of Chipping Campden, and 16 kilometers south of Stratford-upon-Avon. The garden of Hidcote is listed in the National Heritage List for England in the highest class, Grade I." Our three-hour visit was rounded off with delicious cake and clotted cream in the café. Our conclusion: Anyone in the area should definitely stop by!

The whole village is a 'highlight'. Another hidden gem in the Cotswolds. Highlights within the highlight have been posted separately so I won't repeat them here. Suffice to say that Ebrington is well worth a visit and provides a beautiful and peaceful base camp for exploring the wider areas.

wildlife can be spotted in these fields if you are quiet and patient enough, you can catch a baby deer hopping around

Centenary Way is a lovely walk across the Cotswolds Hills from Upper Quinton towards Hidcote and onwards. The entry from Upper Quinton is a bit hard to find, as it literally goes past somebodies front yard and door (mind the little dog).

A 13th century grade 1 listed church. It's a very pretty building to visit and a quiet place for a rest on a walk.

Bit dull suburbia, but this corner of Worcestershire is a far east as it goes.
