This year I decided to take Kelly to the Cotswolds area of England for our Anniversary (11 yrs). When you think about classic English villages, the Cotswolds are exactly that. Houses and buildings made from honey colored cotswold stone, these villages are a treat to visit. We stayed at a B&B in a village called Broadway. The B&B was called East House, and probably one of the nicest places we have ever stayed.
Here are some photos of East House and the Room we stayed in - "The Georgian".

Dinner out on Saturday night in the Great Hall at the famous Lygon Arms Hotel
Other Cotswold Villages we visited:
Upper and Lower Slaughter. The name of the villages stems from the Old English name for a wet land 'slough' or 'slothre' (Old English for muddy place) upon which it lies. Very quiet, classic Cotswold village.
Bourton on the Water. While much more touristy, still a very enjoyable place to visit. We had tea and scones by the river here.
Chipping-Campden with its ancient Market Hall built in 1627, and the beautiful St. James Church
Stow-on-the-Wold - couple shots here with some really cool trees that were planted by this Church and now seem to be part of the structure
