On the road: Great Tews, Little Tews and Shipston on Stour.

It was a cold grey miserable day but Lara picked us up from Riverside campsite for another foray into the beautiful countryside.

We “oohed” and “aahed”  as we drove around the “chocolate box lid” villages, even though the skies were threatening.

We stopped at Great Tews, which is just entrancing and had lunch in the village pub. Then on to Little Tews and her villages.

Eventually we stopped at Shipston on Stour. This was once a thriving sheep town, hence the name. We enjoyed a tea in the cute cafe before making our way back to Stratford upon Avon.
