It’s hard to argue with William Morris who described Bibury as ‘the most beautiful village in England’. Arlington Row is one of the most photographed spots in the Cotswolds with its charming 17th century weavers cottages alongside the gently flowing River Coln. With two pubs and a restaurant in the village you have options for meals and evening drinks, and there are two charming cafes. The Trout Farm is England’s oldest working trout farm where you can catch your own, shop the deli counter or just have lunch in the café. As you explore the village you will also see St Mary’s Church with its beautiful stained glass windows and Norman arches.
