The Tourist Attractions That Shape England’s History
Throughout England and Britain there are many attractions that are rich in historical wonder and that make Britain one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world.
Many of these attractions are located in the capital city of London, but there are plenty outside London as well, in fact, pretty much every county or city in England has a rich and full history, complete with landmarks.
One of the most famous stone monuments in history is located in Wiltshire and has been the subject of much speculation over many years. There is still no solid evidence of why it was built or when, but historians believe that it once served as a burial ground and is around 5500 years old.
The overall creation of this monument is thought to have been spread over a long period of time (between 1500 and 6500 years!) and the stones themselves are thought to have travelled a long way before reaching their destination in Wiltshire.
There have been attempts at modern reconstructions of carrying the stones across the length that they were supposed to have travelled, but all have failed as they have been required to cross rivers and gorges among other things, which would be pretty tricky when carrying stones that weigh several tons.
Another part of England’s history is the famous tale of Robin Hood. In the city of Nottingham where his deeds are said to have taken place, you can visit his statue near the castle in the city centre and visit Sherwood forest, his supposed hideout. It hasn’t been proven whether the tales of Robin Hood are based on fact, or are entirely fictional, but there are certainly many historical references to him in various pieces of literacy, some dating back as far as the 13th century.
Of course, a place that holds a highly notable place in the countries history is Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of possibly the greatest playwright of all time. It is not only home to the house that William Shakespeare was born in, but it is a beautifully quaint town with a picturesque feel to it, outside Henley street that is. Henley street is the street on which Shakespeare’s old house is located, and it is one of the most visited places in the country.
Accomodation is a key component in any great trip. If you don’t have a top quality hotel, it can bring the rest of the trip down. The good news is that England is home to a range of the world’s finest hotels so no matter where abouts you plan to visit, the chances are you won’t be far from some world class accomodation.

Luxury Cotswolds Hotels and B&Bs
A search on the Internet for Cotswolds luxury hotels reveals a dazzling choice of hotels and b&bs to choose from. It is difficult to know where to stay if you are looking for that special place to stay where you get what you want from your stay.
Maybe some of this is down to perception. The Cotswolds offer the perfect setting for a holiday, vacation or short break. It’s easy to fall into a relaxed way of living and be inspired by the scenery. Anything other than perfection can seem not good enough when you compare it to the area.
So what does a luxury hotel mean to you? If a hotel that offers something like the following service seems about right for you, then you may have found your perfect Cotwolds venue. So you get there by car, leaving the stress of the job and home behind.
You pull into the ample car par (doesn’t it annoy you when hotels don’t have enough parking?) and go to sign in. A warm welcome awaits you and the check in process is dealt with easily. You see the room for the first time, and your shoulders drop. Decorated in a county house style it fits in perfectly with the style of the country hotel and indeed the country side around.
A hot relaxing soak in the bath later and its time for a drink in the beamed bar whilst you look at the menus – yes, there are two to choose from. Fine dining tonight in the award winning restaurant, or something from the bar menu? No, tonight it has to be fine dining with good wine – why not be looked after? You deserve it.
After dinner you relax in your room and contemplate what to do the next day. A good breakfast for sure, and then off to see some of the beautiful scenery. Maybe a trip to the Cotswolds water park which is just a stones throw away – it’s a must see Cotswolds tourist attraction, and then maybe a trip to one of the lovely little towns, like Chipping Cambden. Your choice of Cotswolds Luxury Hotels was perfect.
