Famous for charming villages nestled between the rolling hills, characterised by thatched cottages and traditional markets, today you're here to take in some of the regions prettiest towns.

One of the historic market towns in the area, here you can stroll along the quaint streets and enjoy the local hospitality.
Once you've had your fill of winding lanes and thatched cottages, it's time to head back to London in the early evening.
