Cotswold Grey’s guidebook
Sightseeing
Batsford Arboretum is a beautiful place to visit all year round. With interest all year round from the first snowdrops of Spring, right through to the outstanding autumn colours in October and November. Winter time is made extra special with the ice, frost and snow adding a magical touch. Our very own local Winter Wonderland.
Dogs are also very welcome!

At the heart of a traditional, family-run estate covering 4,500 acres of rolling Cotswold countryside stands a 200-year-old Mogul Indian palace, set in a romantic landscape of temples, grottoes, waterfalls and canals reminiscent of the Taj Mahal.
Visitors are welcomed to the house and garden at the set opening times, and a very few special weddings are hosted every summer.

Blockley Village Shop is the perfect place to grab fresh and local produce. It's sourced daily and fresh bread is baked every morning - worth popping in!
Blockley Cafe is joined to the shop. It's an absolute must! Whether it's for a traditional breakfast or a quick coffee and slice of homemade cake! Taken over by Craig Stanley who does the baking and cooking along with his talented team, the food is just to die for. Highly recommend! And, you can follow them on instagram & facebook to keep up to date with upcoming events such as Friday Night Dinners, New Menus and Burger Nights.
