Inn to inn hiking: Where you always walk towards a welcome

“Each inn you found for us was more special than the last—we can’t thank you enough for a truly magical time in the Cotswolds!”

Jacquelyn, USA

Part of the joy of hiking the Cotswolds with Foot Trails is experiencing the authentic side of rural life, away from the crowded national routes. Our trails show you the views, landscapes, towns and villages that we’ve got to know and love from a lifetime of exploring the Cotswolds and South West England. And each trail leads to a warm welcome, a good meal and a room where you’ll feel at home. Our country inns are individual and authentic; places loved by local communities and visitors alike. We hand-pick and stay in every one to ensure you can enjoy a consistent quality throughout your trip.

Hundreds of years old and located in small Cotswolds villages, off the beaten path, you can soak up village life and truly experience being in rural England. After a great day’s hiking, all you have to do is kick off your boots and enjoy your evening in an atmospheric bar and restaurant with no need to go off site for dinner.
