Blockley
The village centre is widely considered one of the Cotswolds’ most picturesque, with a bowling green, a village green, and a graceful Norman church. Self-catering holidays in Blockley would be incomplete without a visit to at least one of the village’s pubs, both of which are known for serving excellent food – the Crown Inn, which is an atmospheric former coaching inn, and the local Hook Norton Brewery’s Great Western Arms. On Bell Lane, there is a small grocery selling a range of local produce, and a café serving good coffee and delicious food, prepared with fresh, local ingredients. On the southern edge of the village, on the banks of the brook, Mill Dene Garden is a lovely place for a wander, with far-reaching views of the surrounding hills.
The countryside on the village’s doorstep has many wonderful walks, and stopping at neigbouring villages is highly recommended. A couple of miles south of Blockley, Bourton-on-the-Hill has pretty 17th-century cottages and the Horse of Groom, another charming pub with roaring fires and award-winning food. North of Blockley, Chipping Campden is known for its elegant terraced high street, variety of independent shops, and wool trading heritage.
