A self-guided cycling holiday from Oxford to Bath!

Cycle Quintessential England and its beautiful Cotswolds. This Self Guided bike tour takes you past thatched cottages, tiny bridges over bubbling brooks, stately willows on lawns of magnificent manors, haunted glens and medieval pubs where kings and queens passed the night, all of which make up the fascinating fabric of this tiny corner of England.

Your bike journey not only takes you from Oxford, the seat of fine education at the edge of the Cotswolds but over to ancient Bath, known by the Romans as Aquae Sulis for its thermal waters, and ends near the most renown English neolithic spiritual sight, Stonehenge.

Get off the bike and enjoy that perfect English tradition of pub life and taste the refreshing pale ales of the area served in medieval inns. This is an experience laden bike tour, which sights galore and local specialities of the region, like the fresh produce and seafood and the array of baking cakes and tarts to tempt any palate.

Staying in some historically steeped villages, this is definitely a trip for those who enjoy relaxing travel on two wheels, and watching millenniums of history slip by at each turn of the wheel.
