A guide to Castle Combe 🌿
Often rated as the “prettiest village in England,” Castle Combe is a delightful destination in the Cotswolds.
Here’s a weekend guide to help you make the most of your visit:
* Explore Castle Combe Village
* Wander through the charming streets and admire the historic buildings that haven’t changed since the 15th century.
* Visit the medieval Market Cross, which sits at the heart of the village. It’s a reminder of when Castle Combe was granted the right to hold a weekly market in 1440.
* Take a 60-minute Step Back in Time village tour with a costumed guide to learn more about the village’s history
* The Manor House Hotel was once a manor house built in the valley below the castle ruins. It’s now a beautiful hotel and a luxurious escape for a weekend.
* Motorsport enthusiasts can visit the Castle Combe Circuit, the South West’s premier racing venue. Enjoy race meetings, car shows, and driving experiences.
* Take a leisurely stroll along the By Brook, which flows through the village. Enjoy the peaceful surroundings and picturesque views.
* Visit lovely St Andrew’s Church, known for its medieval architecture and serene atmosphere.
* Cotswold Water Park - If you have extra time, explore the nearby Cotswold Water Park, which offers lakes, walking trails, and water-based fun!
