A trip to Windsor with its impresssive castle, and Henley-on-Thames to relax by the river is the perfect day out on a summer’s day. Stow-on-the-Wold and Bourton-on-the-Water are both approximately 30 miles away and offer the most picture-postcard villages in this beautiful area with quaint shops and pubs.

Here, the many attractions associated with the bard include the Birthplace Museum, Holy Trinity Church (his burial place), and several of his relative’s houses. Just east of Stratford is Charlecote Park, a huge country estate centred on an ornate Elizabethan mansion. The vast park and gardens boast delightful views of the surrounding villages, and croquet can be played on the lawn.
