The Cotswolds Vacation Guide

The Cotswolds is a range of hills in west-central England, sometimes called the "Heart of England", an area 25 miles (40 km) across and 90 miles (145 km) long. The area has been designated as the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The highest point in the Cotswolds range is Cleeve Hill at 1,083 ft (330 m), 2.5 miles (4 km) to the north of Cheltenham.

The spine of the Cotswolds runs south west to north east through six counties, particularly Gloucestershire, west Oxfordshire, and south western Warwickshire and consists of many small, attractive towns. I would characterise this place as typically English and offers an ideal location for people wanting to avoid touristy area's, preferring to wander off the beaten track.

I got to looking at a couple of the shots I had taken while we were in Europe back in 2005 and found a few that could use some fixing.  I looked at this one taken in the Cotswolds of England and saw a real need.  First I had to remove a couple of the others from our tour.  That was a…
