Bourton on the Water Gloucestershire

Like Lower Slaughter Bourton on the Water has many bridges over the River Windrush.It has been named as the Venice of the Cotswolds due to the many bridges.

Flood damage was particularly bad here and we witnessed many houses emptying their house contents into skips. A waste collection cart was collecting carpets from some of the larger businesses.

This is a beautiful village which is definitely worth visiting for the charm of the surroundings more than anything to sit by the river in one of the many pubs or cafes.
