Days out and Short Breaks on the Cotswold Way

If you are planning a short break or even just a day's walking on the Cotswold Way, information sheets are available detailing how to do this by public transport if you are based in Cheltenham, Stroud or Bath. Each sheet suggests sections of the Trail you can complete using public transport to get there at the start of the day's walking and back again at the end of the day. To download an information sheet visit our free publications page.
