Private Day in the Cotswolds Tour

Cogges Farm doubles up as Yew Tree Farm, the home of Mr Drew in the hit TV series Downton Abbey. Whilst at Cogges Manor Farm you will be guided around the charming farmhouse told about this stunning community-owned property, introduced to some of the animals, including the Sandy and Black Pigs which have a surprising link to a former Prime Minister.

After leaving Cogges Manor Farm, we will take in the beautiful village of Asthall which was the childhood home of the famous, and infamous, Milford sisters where you will learn about how these sisters became some of the most famous people in 20th century Britain and how they have a link to Hitler and The Dukes of Devonshire. Asthall is also home to St Nicholas Church, a stunning building that includes a local clock, and some faded, pre-reformation murals.

The Swan Pub, a pub so good former Prime Minister David Cameron is known to drink here! It is at The Swan where we will stop for a quick, but delicious, pub lunch. Please note that the cost of Lunch is not included in the price of this tour.

Enjoy the picturesque village of Swinbrook, home to the famous Mitford family, as we drive through this stunning village. On the way, your guide will point out some local landmarks that have been used in the hit film series Bridget Jones.

Enjoy the Cotswolds scenery as you drive through this beautiful, quaint, charming village.

The stunning, chocolate box village of Burford is one of the top sites to see in the Cotswolds. Once at Burford, we will take a walk down the beautiful Highstreet, which is your chance to shop for some Cotswolds mementoes, gaze at the stunning architecture and take as many photos as your phone, and camera, can take.

This beautiful village is complete with a forded river, cottages that date back hundreds of years and a historic Pub. A fantastic place of a photo, its is one of the prettiest villages we have ever visited, and we are sure you will agree.

The final stop on the tour is the fantastic filming location that is Bampton village. Bampton is famous for being the filming location for Downton village in all 6 series and the feature film of Downton Abbey. Whilst here I will explain all about filming, give you chance to take photos outside some of the iconic buildings and, if they are feeling friendly, introduce you to some of the local people who adore the TV show almost as much as they love the people who now visit the beautiful village that they call home. You will also be able to explore the stunning 12th Century Church which is at the heart of the village. Whilst here your guide will explain the history of the church, how the church survived the reformation in the 16th Century, and why a crusader knight is buried here. Leaving Bampton at approximately 4pm, we aim to return you to your hotel by 6pm.
