It’s a tree, on a hill, with a bit of a bench around it near a golf course.

The Single Beech, also known as lone or lonely beech, is a single-standing windswept beech tree holding the title as the tallest tree in the Cotswolds, standing at 317m high. There is a magnificent 360 degree panoramic view here where you can really appreciate the scenes of the Cotswolds and surrounding area, including views across Cheltenham, Gloucester & over the Severn Vale to Wales.

At this little pocket in the County of Gloucestershire is Seven Springs, the official source of the iconic River Thames. At 229 miles long, the Thames is the UK's longest river, flowing through southern England all the way to London.

Parking at Daisy bank Road at the bottom is a good place to start. Be aware of MTB trails in the woods!

Dowdeswell Reservoir is a scenic stretch of water on the outskirts of Cheltenham. From the reservoir, you step straight into Dowdeswell Woods; a nature reserve that’s home to many species of plants and animals. Keep a lookout for birds including coot, moorhen, great crested grebe and little grebe.

A country park owned jointly by the National Trust and Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust, there is no end to the beautiful views, hiking trails and wildlife spotting options here. The hill lies on the western edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Cotswolds Way and the Gloucestershire Way long-distance paths both cross the hill. Bluebells, adders, birds and vibrant woodland can all be found on the hill. It's stunning throughout the year with every season bringing something new.

Ask anyone local and they'll tell you that this is the real source of the Thames. Unlike that place at Kemble, which is usually dry anyway, these 7 (seven) springs keep bubbling up the goods all year. Pity that it's a truck stop nowadays.
