Foxhill Manor

Step into a world in miniature at Bourton-on-the-Water’s Grade II listed Model Village — a charming replica of the Cotswold gem itself. Stroll through its tiny streets crafted from local stone, admire the perfectly pruned Alpine gardens and listen for the soft choral notes drifting from the model churches.

Every detail mirrors the real village as it stood in the 1930s — right down to a model within the model. It’s an enchanting blend of nostalgia and craftsmanship that invites you to slow down, look closer and rediscover the art of seeing the small things.

Explore Birdland, a sanctuary where colour, song and history come alive. Wander beneath leafy canopies along the River Windrush as flamingos preen, penguins waddle and parrots chatter in a riot of sound and hue. Encounter over 500 rare and remarkable species, from regal cranes to the majestic cassowary, then journey back in time to meet their Jurassic kin in a woodland of life-sized dinosaurs.

Pause at The Nest Kitchen for fresh local fare, surrounded by nature’s chorus. It’s an experience that stirs curiosity, soothes the soul and celebrates the wild beauty of the Cotswolds.

Discover Broadway, the jewel of the Cotswolds, a village that feels lifted from a painter’s canvas. Wander along the sweeping High Street where golden-hued cottages glow in soft sunlight and chestnut trees cast dappled shade. Savour farm-to-table menus in charming inns, browse independent galleries and trace stories of artists and royals who once lingered here.

As you stroll through rolling wolds and quiet lanes, time seems to loosen its grip. Whether you are sipping local wine at dusk or exploring nearby trails, Broadway invites you to slow down, indulge the senses and rediscover the joy of gentle living.
