Cotswolds are the largest of Britain's 36 Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Crammed with gentle valleys, pretty villages and undulating hills, they're a tourist
hotspot during the summer months, not least of all because of the rolling grasslands
around Stroud and Slad. | |  | Our summer farmlands and grasslands simply come alive
at this time of year with wild flowers and animals. | |  | - Why not try your hand at nature
activities in summer meadows including flower spotting and Badger watching.
