From model villages to Baroque Palaces
Back to Broadway and take a short trip south east to quaint Bourton-on-the-Water. It's replicated in the fascinating Model Village, which was created in the 1930s and built from local Cotswold stone. Bourton's Picturesque gallery showcases the work, from paintings to jewellery, of a select group of local artists.
Nearby Stow-on-the-Wold is a lovely old Cotswold market town. Originally a major wool centre situated on the ancient Fosse Way Roman road, it has antique shops, art galleries and tea rooms. While you're there, nip down the road to Chipping Norton to take a look at the 19th-century Bliss Tweed Mill.
Continue on towards Oxford for Blenheim Palace at Woodstock. This World Heritage Site in the Cotswolds is a unique example of English Baroque architecture, with an exhibition that brings to life the palace's 300-year history.
