A Cotswolds Christmas - Cirencester Christmas Market & Stow on the Wold. (From Elton & Burton Latimer)

Experience the Magic of a Cotswolds Christmas: Cirencester Market & Stow-on-the-Wold

Our most popular Christmas trip returns this year with a new location! Step into a winter wonderland with our exclusive day trip to two of the Cotswolds' most enchanting destinations. Leave the driving and parking to us as you sit back, relax, and soak up the festive cheer on a luxury coach journey through the countryside.

The Capital of the Cotswolds

Our first stop is the historic market town of Cirencester, where the streets come alive with the sights, sounds, and scents of the annual Christmas Market. Set against the magnificent backdrop of the Church of John the Baptist, the bustling market stalls offer an incredible array of hand-crafted gifts, festive decorations, and unique local crafts. Wrap your hands around a warm mug of mulled wine, sample roasted chestnuts, and enjoy the live festive music that fills the crisp winter air.

Charming Stow-on-the-Wold

Later, we move on to the quintessential Cotswold town of Stow-on-the-Wold. Known for its grand market square, ancient honey-coloured stone buildings, and independent boutiques. Based on your feedback we have allowed more time here. Stow is the perfect place to find those special, one-of-a-kind Christmas gifts. Take a gentle stroll through its historic alleys, discover hidden courtyards beautifully adorned with twinkling fairy lights, or relax in a cosy traditional tearoom with a hot drink and a festive treat.
