COTSWOLDS DISCOVERER

Unlimited off-peak travel for one day between Moreton-in-Marsh and Oxford; between Ashchurch for Tewkesbury and Yate; and between Gloucester and Swindon via Stroud - these lines are obviously not all connected.

The ticket is also valid and can be bought from Johnson’s Excelbus and Stagecoach buses within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty which connects the two separate rail lines.

description

The Cotswolds Discoverer allows travel throughout the Cotswolds by both bus and train but the rail sections are limited to Moreton-in-Marsh to Oxford, Ashchurch for Tewkesbury to Yate and Gloucester to Swindon. The area extends as far north as Stratford-upon-Avon but only by bus.
