The coaches full of American or Chinese tourists come from London to the Cotswolds and head north - to the tearoom traps of Bourton, Bibury and Stow. Those in-the-know who want a lovely Cotswold village or market town with those beautiful honey-coloured cottages head to the South Cotswolds, to Malmesbury, Tetbury and the picture-postcard Castle Combe.
But there’s one village that’s just as lovely as anything on any tourist itinerary, but is one of the Wiltshire Cotswolds’ best-kept secrets - Biddestone.
You’ve probably never heard of it. You might have seen a sign for it when heading to Castle Combe or Corsham. Even if you know it you may well have been pronouncing it wrong anyway.
