We have narrowed our holiday down to the Cotswolds. Now I am asking if anyone can recommend a really pretty village/town to stay in that is central to all the best areas of the Cotswolds (we will have a car to drive around). We are not really looking to stay in a big place more just a really beautiful place with pretty gardens etc. We are interested in doing some short walks and that sort of thing.

It is almost impossible to choose from the many lovely towns and villages in the Cotswolds one particularly beautiful place. But you have chosen well in picking the area for a holiday. What will be the type of accommodation you are looking for? My wife and I regularly visit the area and we either use our touring caravan or we stay at bed and breakfast pubs. We have stayed at "The Village Pub" in Barnsley (the one near Cirencester) which is close to the gardens of Gertrude Jekyll.We have also used "The Kings Head" at Bledington, a lovely pub doing great food and super breakfasts. There are many others that you can find in The Good Pub Guide. There are plenty of walks in the area and, to be honest, it’s almost impossible not to enjoy a break in the Cotswolds.
