> Must Visit:
Clearwell Caves – From the Coleford town centre in Gloucestershire, it is only 1.5 miles to Clearwell Caves, which for thousands of years have been the source of iron ore and brown, purple, yellow and red ochre, which are used in making artists' pigments. It is a working mine and mining museum, where visitors could see a different world which only miners used to see.> Cotswolds –an unspoilt and distinctively English region where time seem to have stood still for 300 years. It is widely known for its gentle hillsides or wolds, with quiet and laid-back villages with uniform honey-coloured limestone structures and buildings, market towns teeming with history, beech woods, water meadows and river valleys.
