Women Only London & Cotswolds Small Group Tour
Dates: November 6–13, 2027
Destinations: London, Windsor, the Cotswolds, Oxford & Bath
Trip length: 8 days / 7 nights
Spend 8 unforgettable days exploring London and the English countryside with a small group of like-minded women.
We’ll begin in London before making our way to the Cotswolds, stopping at Windsor Castle along the way. For the next six nights, we’ll settle into the historic Old Bell Hotel in Malmesbury, giving us one charming home base for exploring the surrounding countryside.
Our days will take us through storybook Cotswold villages, historic estates and some of England’s most beautiful cities. We’ll explore Bath and Oxford, visit Blenheim Palace, enjoy a traditional English afternoon tea, and experience a side of the Cotswolds most visitors never see.
Some of the most memorable moments will be the smaller, more personal experiences, including a private visit to a family-owned Elizabethan manor, baking traditional English treats in a local Cotswold home, and a private falconry experience in the countryside.
Expect beautiful countryside, cozy villages, grand houses, incredible history and plenty of time to slow down and enjoy it all, while traveling with a small group of women.
Women who want connection, culture and comfort without early mornings, packed schedules or constant hotel changes.
Perfect for solo travelers who want the companionship of a small group while still having time and space to explore independently.
