The North Cotswolds actually start in the very south of Warwickshire.  Ilmington is the only village in Warwickshire that can officially claim to be in the Cotswold Hills.

 

Within easy reach are many charming villages and market towns, easily distinguished with their beautiful Cotswold stone.

Just a few miles from Ilmington is the historic town of Chipping Campden and well worth a visit.   This historic wool merchants town has plethora of architectural styles and has been described as the most beautiful High Street on this island by G M Trevelyan.
