Guidebook to walking the Cotswold Way National Trail between Chipping Campden and Bath. The 102 mile route is described in both directions over 13 stages, and is a lovely walk through one of the best-loved regions of lowland Britain. The longest of the 13 stages is 10 miles, the shortest 6 miles dictated by the existence of overnight accommodation. The route became a National Trail in May 2007, despite the fact that this much-loved long distance trail has been in existence for more than 35 years. The guide is illustrated with OS mapping and the author's own full-colour photographs.
