Cotswold Ramble & Revive

July 24th - 31st, 2027

There’s a version of a walking vacation where you’re checking a map every 20 minutes arguing about which fork to take and hauling a backpack that gets heavier with each step. This is NOT that.

There’s a version of group trips where you are on a bus for 2-3 hours at a time with 38 people who you don’t know and getting 30 minutes to explore each site before you’re being hauled to the next destination because the itinerary is planned down to the second. This is NOT that.

For six days, you’ll walk the Cotswold Way at a pace that allows you to breathe! The countryside here is built for exactly this: golden-stone villages, hedgerow-lined footpaths, sheep that don’t care that you’re there. All along a marked trail with a local guide who knows the trail.

The Broadway Tower will rise above you on day one. By day three, you’ll be standing inside Sudeley Castle, the final resting place of Henry VIII’s last wife. At the end of the week, you will have climbed the highest point on the entire trail and stood at the end of Devil’s Chimney overlooking Cheltenham. The pace will be deliberate but also allowing you to take in each step.

The evenings are entirely up to you. Some nights will offer a group dinner around a long table for us to share our inside jokes from the day or our favorite viewpoint on the walk so far. Other nights will allow you to enjoy a pint in the local pub or peruse the small shops to find some treasures or take in a late dinner with your new or old friends.
