Earl Shilton

Earl Shilton

Shilton is my favourite village… nestled in The Shill valley a place that exudes the quintessential Cotswold character , ambiance and class.
Shilton's close relationship with the Cotswolds is undeniable. Its traditional architecture, featuring honey-colored Cotswold stone, and the surrounding rolling hills paint a picture of classic English countryside. The Shill Brook flows through the village into a clear pool used by children and dogs in hot summer days! The area surrounding Shilton is one of natural beauty, and historical significance.
