Cotswold's attractions
If you're on holiday in Britain, why not come to the Cotswold? It's a delightful area of rolling farmland and pretty stone-built villages. If you need to forget the world for a few days, this is the place for you. These are some of the places you can visit while you're here.
A. Cotswold's Wildlife Park
Situated in gardens and woodland around an old English country house, a large and varied collection of animals from all over the world can be seen in spacious enclosures. There is also a reptile house, aquarium, tropical house, a picnicking area, an adventure playground, bar, restaurant, and gift shops. Special events are organised during the summer months.
B. Cotswold's motor museum and Toy Collection
This is more than a motor museum, for along with the amazing cars and motorcycles there are 7,000 items from the vintage motoring years. The museum is housed in an eighteenth century watermill on the River Windrush at the heart of Bourton-on-the-Water, one of the most beautiful Cotswold villages. In a 1920s atmosphere, you can see shops of the period, a display of old caravans and the Childhood Toy Collection.
C. Cotswold countryside collection
Cotswold country life is displayed here, with agricultural exhibits and a "seasons of the year" sequence plus Cotswold social life and an exhibition of laundry, dairy and kitchen items. Audio and video sequences and weekend events programmes. Free car parking and a range of refreshments.
D. Keith Harding's world of mechanical music
"A unique experience in sound". An award-winning museum of antique clocks, musical boxes, and mechanical musical instruments in an old wool merchant's house in Northleach. Here also are Europe's leading restorers of clocks and musical boxes, as well as an enchanting shop with musical gifts that will bring joy to all ages.
E. Perfumery Exhibition
The Perfumery Exhibition, believed to be the only one in Europe, is set in the delightful Cotswold village of Bourton-on-the-Water. This permanent exhibition includes an explanation of perfume extraction processes, an audio visual show in a specially constructed "Smelly Vision" theatre and a perfume garden where the plants have been selected for their fragrance.
F. Pittuille Pump Room museum
Housed in the magnificent pump room, where people used to come to drink the health-giving water, this museum imaginatively uses original costumes to bring to life the history of Cheltenham from Regency times to the Swinging Sixties. Jewelry showing changing taste and fashion from Regency to Art Nouveau, and a spectacular collection of tiaras are also included. Special exhibitions are held throughout the season.
G. Cotswold Water Park
The Cotswold Water Park, which offers an exciting variety of activities, is based on a network of lakes formed from old quarries. In addition to the water activities, which include fishing, windsurfing, sailing and water-skiing, there are walks and picnic sites. This nationally-recognised conservation area has a number of nature reserves providing opportunities to study an enormous variety of plants and local wildlife.
H. Birdland Park
At Birdland you will find a huge variety of birds from all over the globe, with many wandering freely amongst the visitors. Watch our large colony of penguins feeding, swimming and playing. Relax in our newly-created picnic area, whilst keeping an eye on the children in the play area, or come to our newly-opened cafeteria. Sit in the gardens and feel the peace and tranquillity of Birdland.
