Expert Tip. Bibury was once described by writer and artist William Morris as ‘the most beautiful village in England’. Its honey coloured 17th century stone cottages with steep pitched roofs once provided housing for weavers from nearby Arlington Mill. The mill now houses a folk and agricultural museum, including a room dedicated to Morris. The village also features a trout farm, where visitors can catch their own fish and sample trout dishes in the restaurant.
