A pair of villages just over an hour's drive away from Bristol provide the perfect day trip for those who want to soak up a taste of country life - or simply need a break from city life. A trip to the Cotswolds offers rolling hills, green fields and the stone-built village that many of us seek during a break.
Therefore, it is not surprising that the Cotswolds often feature prominently when it comes to naming the UK's most picturesque scenes. And this beauty is perfectly showcased by the Slaughters, as reporter by MyLondon.
Despite a rather grisly set of names, the twin villages of Upper and Lower Slaughter are the quintessential Cotswold settings. Thatched stone cottages sat beside perfectly still water, grass so verdant it almost pains the eye, and locals who nod a greeting despite never having met you in their life.
