Manor Close is a bed-and-breakfast in Bourton-on-the-Water, one of the Cotswolds' most visited villages.
The village sits right on the River Windrush, which flows through shallow banks crossed by a series of elegant low footbridges that practically invite you to wander down after breakfast. The accommodation gives you comfortable rooms and hearty breakfasts to fuel your explorations.
Bourton keeps most visitors happily occupied for at least a day or two. The Model Village offers an afternoon's entertainment if you enjoy miniature recreations of the local area, while the Cotswold Motoring Museum will appeal if you're interested in classic cars. Birdland Park and Gardens draws plenty of visitors too, and there are traditional tea rooms and independent shops throughout the village. The center is compact and entirely walkable, so you can see most of it on foot without much effort.
The location also works well as a base for exploring further. Stow-on-the-Wold and Burford are both within easy driving distance and worth the trip for their own architecture, character, and feel of traditional Cotswolds market towns. Some visitors use Bourton as a central point to see several villages over a few days, while others prefer to stay put and enjoy everything the village itself has to offer.
