Warners, Littlecote House<br />
Littlecote House on the borders of the Cotswolds is a superb Grade 1 listed<br />
16th century Tudor mansion in a spectacular setting. Hosting Tudor<br />
monarchs, Civil War captains and Regency nobles, it was here that Henry Vlll<br />
courted Jane Seymour. It has an awe-inspiring Great Hall, Cromwellian chapel<br />
and spiral Jerusalem stairs leading to the troops’ quarters and Long Gallery.<br />
There is 113 acres of land, 40 of which are gardens, which includes the Lime<br />
Tree Avenue and a spectacular topiaried yew avenue. There is also a unique<br />
Roman Orpheus mosaic and remains of the villa in its grounds.<br />
Day 1 After our local pick ups we travel<br />
to Winchester, Hampshire’s capital town.<br />
Remarkably, this historic cathedral city is the<br />
former capital of England. Amongst many<br />
other interesting things, you might well choose<br />
to visit the Guildhall and the Royal Green<br />
Jackets Museum. We then continue our<br />
journey to Littlecote House.<br />
Day 2 Today we enjoy a scenic drive through<br />
the Cotswolds. The rolling hillsides of the<br />
area are full of dry stonewalls from the 18th<br />
and 19th Centuries, framing that can only be<br />
described as quintessential England. We visit<br />
the area bounded by Bourton-on-the-Water,<br />
Stow-on-the-Wold, Moreton-in-the Marsh and<br />
Broadway, the ‘jewel of the Cotswolds’. After<br />
lunch, we make our way to Toddington, where<br />
we join the Gloucestershire Warwickshire<br />
Railway for a train ride through the beautiful<br />
Gloucestershire countryside to Cheltenham,<br />
before returning to our hotel.<br />
Day 3 We spend the day at the hotel today<br />
and make the most of all the hotel has to offer.<br />
Alternatively why not join us on an optional<br />
excursion (not included in the tour price). After<br />
dinner, another great evening of Warner<br />
entertainment follows.<br />
Day 4 Today we visit Lacock, a pretty village<br />
along the River Avon with bundles of history,<br />
known for its photography museum. Home<br />
to Tudor, half-timbered black and white<br />
buildings, and stone houses, it’s acquired a<br />
name for being a prime film location – being<br />
featured in BBC’s production of Pride and<br />
Prejudice in 1995 and the 2007 BBC<br />
production of Cranford.<br />
Day 5 After a leisurely breakfast our homeward<br />
journey will include a mystery lunch stop.<br />
