Completed the trail over 8 days at weekends throughout summer 2019 starting in Chipping Campden going south. This was my fourth national trail and was easily the most challenging so far both in terms of logistics and the number of climbs and descents involved. The good thing about these ups and downs is that I was regularly greeted by stunning views from the top. A really varied walk with beautiful landscapes and lots of really nice villages passed through. My favourite sections were towards the finish and ending in Bath is the perfect way to end it. Definitely do not underestimate this walk but well worth doing.

I, IeuanT (10 years old), carried all my kit and camped.it was a very enjoyable trip(my legs are still hurting)! The cakes at the bakery at Wootton-under-Edge and climbing the Tyndale Monument to see a hot air balloon at 8.30am were amazing!

Loved this walk, the countryside, and the people we met. I was in love with the whole process every day (even though we walked through some of England's hottest weather ever).

Brilliant walk. We did it from Bath to Chipping Campden, the opposite direction to most other people! It was great to start in Bath then end peacefully in the true Cotswold town of Chipping Campden. The walk was well waymarked so very easy to navigate. The weather was glorious 😁

A lovely walk along the escarpments of the Cotswolds, through many woodland paths, and up and down many hills! This was the most challenging long distant walk I have ever done, but well worth it.

Lovely walk through fields and forest, Marvellous landscapes and views - but best of all - meeting and laughing with other walkers.

We had an AMAZING experience...absolutely beautiful walk through the countryside with gorgeous views. Walked north to south (Chipping Campden to Bath) and loved ending our walk at the magnificent Abbey. Would highly recommend!

We enjoyed all 13 days of our walk from Chipping Campden to Bath. Beautiful vistas, lovely towns, and wonderful people (and their dogs) were encountered along the Way. A big American thank you to all those who work to maintain the trail and the waymarking!

We loved to walk the Cotswolds Way. The way is well marked, we enjoyed the landscape, the people and the work of the nation trust. Thank you for everything you do! You do a great job.

5 days from Chipping Campden to Bath stopping at Winchcombe, Birdlip, Dursley and Tomarton and only 2 cream teas! Warm welcome in all the B&B, even when arriving soaking wet. Lovely encounters on route with people and dogs. Beautiful villages with cottages in lovely gardens and impressive manor houses with magnificent parks, all surrounded by lovely view. Of course it is going up and down and up again but this is the guarantee of an ever changing view behind the hill. This was our first National Trail but will not be the last one!

Wonderful experience we will never forget. Tougher hills than we frankly expected and daily rain but altogether a wonderful experience!
