Breakfast is included at the hotel.

Spend the day in the Cotswolds area of Gloucestershire.

Start with a visit to Hidcote Manor Gardens, now owned by the National Trust.

Hidcote is one of England’s great gardens. Designed and created by the horticulturist Major Lawrence Johnston in the Arts & Crafts style, it comprises exquisite garden rooms, each possessing its own character.  Nestled in the Cotswolds, with sweeping views of the Vale of Evesham, Hidcote is an appealing garden.

Lunch at nearby Chipping Campden in a traditional English Pub.

After lunch, explore the Cotswold villages as you please before returning to Bath.

In the early evening, enjoy a private visit to The American Museum in Britain, including a reception with drinks and canapés.

Return to the hotel for the farewell dinner.
