Things to Do Walkers are Welcome! Charlton Kings, often cited as Britain's largest village, lies within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is located to the South East of Cheltenham. The Cotswolds are known, the world over, as an area which is typically “English” with their drystone walls and charming buildings, open skies, rolling grasslands, beech woods and captivating villages. These are villages that seem unchanged since medieval times with narrow winding lanes, and thriving markets. There are welcoming pubs with log fires burning in the winter months, specialist shops selling local products, tea rooms, restaurants and antique shops to die for.
