After a lot of careful planning, we knocked out one of our bucket list dreams. We explored London for a few days, and then hiked in the Cotswolds for 10 days. We found a terrific company to help us with all the planning - can't recommend them highly enough - Foot Trails out of Bath UK
Foot Trails.
We hiked about 11 miles a day, quite leisurely, enjoyed the coutryside, the people, the food, and the Inns - it all was really quite glorious.
