Cirencester & the Cotswolds

“All of the paths you take in life, make sure some of them are dirt.” – John Muir

Spent one night in this gorgeous market town of Cirencester.
It was close to a hike that was on our radar — Coln St Aldwyns to Bibury.
Along the way we stopped to admire the view when we saw a wiggly black spot out in the field. “Murph, I think that’s a new born calf!” Sure enough, we waited and watched for about 15 minutes until it found it legs.
And stumbled over to mom to nurse.
Arriving in Bibury we went to this 12th century row of weaver’s cottages. Now privately owned and protected by the National Trust.
Very quaint – if you can put up with the tourists during the warm months, I think it would be a lovely place to live.
Stopped to watch these beauties preen for a LONG time. Very fastidious!
So worth all that work!
Heading back to the car and
following the sign posts along the way.
Often across farmer’s fields (public footpaths).
Serene pastures to wander past.
Have I mentioned flowers? July was very wet and cool and the flowers are the pay off ❤️

  13. You really have captured the Cotswolds! Such a lovely area to walk in, and once you get about 500 yards away from a car park, very peaceful. We had a week’s walking there in September 2020 with Milly (between lockdowns) and appreciated the freedom to roam in such lovely surroundings 😊🌿
