Painswick, Gloucestershire

If you had at least one time wished to experience fairytale life, discover Painswick. Everyone will be surprised after visiting St. Mary's churchyard. The grounds will put you to rest with their 99 magnificent yew trees (a legend holds that the 100th won't grow). For good reason, it has been dubbed the "Queen of the Cotswolds".


Run through the tree tunnel, marvel at the tabletop tombs, and look in the church tower for Civil War treasures. The tombs are from the seventeenth century. The inhabitants are welcoming and inviting, and they often have great stories (and occasionally tea and biscuits) to share if you happen to be here in time for a service. Then, get lost in the winding streets dotted with traditional English houses. The homes here are constructed of Cotswold stone, similar to Castle Combe. You can still see remnants of Painswick's past as a wool town, such as donkey doors on Bisley Street if you look closely enough. Don't miss Rococo Gardens, which in addition to its magnificent gardens also gives breathtaking views of the surrounding area. Even though it's a little outside of town, it's definitely worth a visit.
