We then continue to Tetbury which is an area of outstanding natural beauty and the second largest town in the Cotswolds. It is the home of King Charles III and Camilla, Queen Consort of the United Kingdom. Tetbury was an important market for Cotswold wool and yarn during the Middle Ages. Today, it is better associated with boutique shops, great food, and its Royal Connections.

We round the day off with a visit to Glastonbury. Rich in myth and legend, Glastonbury is known for its ancient and medieval sights, and, of course, one of the most famous music festivals in the world!
