Cotswolds - Day trip return from London

[AdvocatusD]

Porsche GT3 and F430 heading out into the Cotswold and looking for some tips.

Looking to leave about 11am from NW London and we want to:

1. Stop for lunch at an a good gastro pub.

2. Enjoy the cars on some nice, well sighted roads on the way to some worthwhile towns and sights.

3. Try to catch the Men's 100 metre finals if they're on during the day somewhere...

4. Be back in NW London by 8.30pm for dinner in London.

I'd be very grateful for some tips!

Brilliant, thank you.

Any suggestions for other gastropubs (have been to Trout, nice location but food quite standard) in an area near the start of the route?

Trying to work out how to print out the actual directions...!

B4425, A361 if you are in the Bibury area.

The New Inn at Coln St Aldwyns is definitely gastro. http://www.new-inn.co.uk/
