Dear Visitor,

Welcome to the Bourton-on-the-Water Website, the content of the site has been produced by local people so that you as a visitor, can enjoy at your leisure some of the delightful features of our lovely village and the countryside around it.

The Cotswolds have always been looked upon as the Heart of England. It is one of the few regions with an architectural style all of its own and the steeply pitched roofs, stone mullions and dormer windows are typical. Built almost exclusively in warm yellow Cotswold stone, this delightful village has such a unique appeal to visitors and residents alike.

Regularly voted one of the prettiest villages in England, Bourton-on-the-Water has more than its share of Cotswold houses and cottages, many of them three hundred years old, some dating back to Elizabethan times four hundred years ago. There is plenty to see and do here and we hope this site and the information within makes your stay as enjoyable as possible.

The Chairman,
The Chamber of Commerce,
Bourton-on-the-Water.
