The Swan Inn

Highlight • Restaurant

This unassuming pub is where David Cameron was famously snubbed by Francois Hollande as he tried to negotiate British concessions for the EU before Brexit. In years to come I reckon they'll write a film about it.

St Mary Church is a beautiful 12th-century church situated in the village of Swinbrook in Gloucestershire. It is a typical Cotswold church in its age and peaceful charm, and is a mixture of Romanesque and early Gothic architecture.

Burford Village

Highlight • Historical Site

Sometimes known as the Gateway to the Cotswolds this is one of the prettiest villages in England. Worth looking inside the church for some interesting civil war history. I’d recommend stopping at Huffkins bakery for one of their Chelsea buns as they are legendary, they also have some space around the back for bikes.
