The Central England / Cotswolds / Cheltenham / Gloucester region
Bruern is a tiny Cotswolds hamlet hidden in the Evenlode Valley, which has been officially designated as an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty'. You would have to go far and look hard to find a single blot on this landscape – a countryside of rolling fields and woods, threaded through by meandering streams, an area of handsome towns, churches and manor houses.
Stow on the Wold area
Nearby are famously beautiful villages: Great Tew with its thatched cottages; Bibury; Broadway; the romantic ruins of Minster Lovell; the Slaughters; Kelmscott; Adlestrop; Guiting Power and Bourton-on-the-Water. Then there are towns of golden Cotswold stone like Burford, Stow-on-the-Wold and Moreton-in-Marsh, whose handsome houses, churches, inns and shops were built on the profits of the wool trade some six hundred years ago, when the area was one of the most prosperous in Europe. It was this wealth that enabled people to build in stone, and as a result the towns and villages of the Cotswolds have remained intact, to become among the oldest surviving communities in the UK.
