The Cotswolds

Explore The Cotswolds

At Foot Trails we have a huge passion for walking in the Cotswolds. 

Alison and David Howell’s families have a long history to this area. Many of Alison’s family farm in the county. So with intimate local knowledge we’d love to show you everything that is wonderful about the Cotswolds.

We’ve designed walking trips and tours to take you off the beaten track so you can be sure to find villages and views that are quiet and little known.

Start today, browse your Cotswolds walking holiday options below.
