Cotswold Recommendation Please

Hello everyone. I'm actually going to be visiting Bath and London this summer. After Bath, we are spending the day at Warwick Castle and will be driving through the Cotswolds mid-afternoon on our way to spend one night in Cheltenham before heading into London the following day. We would like to stop somewhere in the Cotswolds for an hour or two to just walk around and admire the scenery. Does anyone have a suggestion on where would be a good place to stop somewhere between Warwick and Cheltenham? I thought about Snowshill but I wasn't sure what would be best.

Thank you so much in advance.

There are so many places - hard to pick just one.
I spent a week in Burton on the Water and on the weekends it is filled with visitors.

If you do happen to go there , be sure to walk down some of side streets and not just the main street.
I've also visited Upper and Lower Slaughter, Chipping Campden, Stow-on Wold, Broadway.
I love this area and think you would be delighted with any of the towns.

Bourton-on-the-Water and Painswick are so beautiful as all of Cotswolds are.
Chipping Campden, Broadway, and Stow-on-the-Wold, Ubwould suggest to read about each village and see which one appeals to you. You couldn't go wrong with anyone you decide on.

I thought now that I'm back from the trip I'd mention that we were able to visit both Chipping Campden and Snowshill. Scenery was gorgeous and the weather was perfect. We also managed to visit a Lavender Farm just outside Snowshill and spent a few hours with the blooming fields and the sheep. There was also a nice cafe there where I had some Lavender Lemon cake and tea. The kids had so much fun frolicking through the fields. It was a great find.
