The Cotswolds National Landscape is one of England’s most celebrated rural areas, recognised for its rolling hills, honey‑coloured stone villages, ancient woodlands and rich cultural heritage. Stretching across nearly 800 square miles, it covers parts of Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire, Wiltshire and Worcestershire, forming the largest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the country.

The organisation behind the Cotswolds National Landscape works to conserve and enhance this distinctive environment — protecting wildlife habitats, supporting sustainable farming, managing footpaths and trails, and helping communities care for the landscapes that define the region. It also plays a key role in promoting responsible tourism, encouraging visitors to enjoy the countryside while safeguarding its long‑term health.

With a focus on nature recovery, heritage protection and community engagement, the Cotswolds National Landscape collaborates with landowners, local authorities, charities and volunteers to ensure the area remains a thriving, resilient and beautiful place for future generations. From the Cotswold Way National Trail to its historic market towns and sweeping escarpments, the organisation champions everything that makes the Cotswolds one of Britain’s most iconic landscapes.
