WE are flying from Denmark to England(Stansted airport) in late March for a short break og four nights. We have rented a car.
We have on previous trip to England been to both Yorkshire and the Lake District and also toured the area around Colchester.
Thats why we are looking for moething new this year.
We enjoy driving around the country side and stopping in the lovely small villages - and I have been looking at The Cotswold - but we would like a base that is not to far from the Airport( max 1 hours drive ) and yet traditional England.Anyone who can give us any information or tips on where to go and stay - og maybe a different area to explore.
thank you
Having explored the north how about the "west country" which would take in Devon/cornwall/somerset maybe dorset for your next visit. im sure you could take in the cotswolds as well 
have a look here
http://www.westcountrynow.co.uk. this area is generally milder than the rest of the UK. My personal favourite would be Devon. .
for the cotswolds area maybe have a look here. http://www.visitcotswoldsandsevernvale.gov.uk/history/index.asp. this area would be nearer to stansted airport. maybe 1/2 hours

Norfolk and Suffolk. Southwold, Aldburgh, Norfolk Broads etc
I agree with lynwestie! The Cornwall coastline is absolutely breathtaking, and there's so much to admire and enjoy inland as well. There are plenty of traditional picturesque fishing villages, the most famous of which is called St Ives, which is gorgeous, plus there are lovely old castles and some stunning cliffside walks. Devon has some truly beautiful locations as well 
enjoy!
enjoy!
Hello
Thank you very much for all your tips - I realise this trip won't be our last - and this time we will be touring the Cotswold. Have found a great little hotel in Cirencester - and with a base there - we will be able to go to both oxford - strafford - stonehenge - and also just explore the small villages in the cotswold area.
The fleece hotel in Cirencester seems to be an ideal place - anyone know the town and or the hotel - Would appreciate any tips ...
