Stanton is a quintessential Cotswold village, featuring honey-coloured stone cottages and a picturesque setting.
Its history is evident in landmarks such as the Norman church of St. Michael and All Angels. The village’s peaceful atmosphere and stunning views of the surrounding countryside make it a perfect retreat for those seeking tranquillity and natural beauty.

This 17th century dog friendly village pub stands on the mount at the end of Stanton overlooking panoramic idyllic views of the Cotswolds countryside. See views across the Vale of Evesham, Malvern Hills, and even the Black Welsh mountains and beyond.
As well as offering a delicious menu of tasty, home cooked locally supplied foods and beverages, the Mount Inn also hosts a variety of activities and events including horse riding and boules.

Really top class service from Paul Charnick and the team. Good advice on best choices of vehicles, pick up times etc.
Paul adjusted some pick up times once he knew the state of the traffic etc. He knows the area so well we took his advice on journey times and were pleased we did. very nice new and spotless vehicles.
Everything like clockwork on the day, around 8 different cars each with a separate itinerary. No problems on our big day and Paul always took a personal interest in getting it all correct.

Fantastic service. Paul and the team were exceptional throughout and saved our holiday when our own rental car arrangements fell through! Paul and the team were attentive, supportive, and provided a number of fantastic recommendations for us during our stay. Highly recommended to all. Big thanks!

Cotswold Tour werr the best! They were accommodating, professional, knowledgeable, and fun to be with. Their cars and drivers were on time and patient with all our needs. We would definitely use this company many times again! Thank you, Paul and Richard!

We can’t say enough good things about our experience with Cotswold Tour. The owner Paul was friendly, responsive and helped us create a fantastic itinerary. We spent 5 days touring the Cotswolds with Rich. He was a great driver, great company, and brought us to many charming, beautiful villages off the beaten track as well as well known towns and National Trust sites. His restaurant recommendations were spot on. We would do it all again in a heartbeat!

We’re so happy to have hired Cotswold Tour for our recent trip in the Cotswolds. Their service was amazing. Paul helped us plan our itinerary prior to arriving and we spent two full days touring the area with Richard, who was fabulous. He was very knowledgeable and we got to see everything we wanted and more. I highly recommend them, you won’t be disappointed.

Our experience with Cotswold Tour was outstanding. Their efforts to accommodate our interests and schedule were above and beyond. We had a very experienced and knowledgeable guide who made sure we saw much more than the main attractions of the Cotswolds. The company addressed all of our needs whether for local transportation or sightseeing. Every one of their staff from the scheduler to our guide and drivers to London were great.

On my recent visit to the Cotswolds, I hired Cotswold Tour to drive me for 3 days, plus pick up at Heathrow and drop off at my hotel in London. The drivers were very safe and knowledgeable and the cars were very clean and comfortable. I had no set agenda, and it was nice to be able to go wherever and do whatever I wanted (hiking, shopping, sightseeing, etc.) and not worry about parking, etc. I highly recommend them.

Just spent the most incredible few days exploring the Cotswolds. We booked so last minute, and couldn’t be more thankful to Cam for making it work and sending us an executive car within an hour. Rich, our driver was just wonderful. Excellent driving, a fountain of knowledge, and just a really lovely guy. We really really enjoyed ourselves and couldn’t recommend enough.

Paul and Rural Rides are knowledgeable, accommodating, responsive, and delightful. They designed and mapped wonderful walks in the beautiful Cotswold countryside for us and suggested excellent pub stops along the way. Truly memorable; we look forward to our next visit.

Rural Rides was an absolute delight to work with. Our driver Rich was perfectly on time for all three transfers and provided a really comfortable experience. We were able to add a 2 hour stop from our transfer from London to the Cotswold’s which allowed us to enjoy a site we wanted to go to for lunch. Rich was super knowledgeable of the area and even provided some nice history points along the way. I would highly recommend and plan to book with Rural Rides on every return.
Please get on touch with any questions you may have and a member of our team will be happy to help.
