Being a centre of learning for more than 900 years has bequeathed Oxford with countless faculties, halls, libraries, chapels and lodgings, earned it the soubriquet of City of Dreaming Spires. Enjoy a gentle walking tour through narrow alleys and historic squares. See the Bodleian Library and the splendid college courtyards.
The rolling hills of the Cotswolds are one of England’s most picturesque locations. The area is a charming blend of breathtaking natural scenery, sleepy villages and bustling market towns.
Follow in the footsteps of young Shakespeare with a guided tour of Stratford-Upon-Avon. Visit the half-timbered house where he was born in 1564 as well as the half-timbered Anne Hathaway's Cottage, where his wife’s family lived.
Dating from when Normans and Saxons battled for control of England, Warwick Castle has all the features a castle should have: walls, towers, a barbican, a dungeon, a vast central courtyard and even a mill.
