Ramblers have recommended a little-known Cotswolds village for its stunning views and "impeccable" pub lunches. Swinbrook is an hour and 20 minutes' drive from Bristol city centre, close to the bustling tourist town of Burford and the popular attraction Cotswold Wildlife Park.
While quieter than some of the busier destinations nearby, visitors say it makes for a beautiful walking spot and is also home to an award-winning pub. Outdoor activity app AllTrails, which maps walking and hiking routes, recommends a 7km circular route which generally takes just under two hours to complete.
Describing the walk, it states: "An easy-going route which is suitable to most abilities, so a wonderful opportunity to get outdoors. Some parts can get rather muddy during wetter months, so best to come prepared with appropriate footwear and layers for full enjoyment.
