The Central England / Cotswolds / Cheltenham / Gloucester region
The Cotswolds are classified as "an area of outstanding natural beauty" and offer a rich tapestry of green rolling hills studded with picture-postcard villages
Cirencester and Stroud are fifteen minutes drive while Gloucester, Cheltenham, Bristol and Bath can be reached within an hour.
Stroud / Chalford area
Our traditional stone cottages are spread over the farm and have rural views as good as any in England. You can just hear the distant bells of Oakridge church and see the houses peep out of the canopy of trees on the other side of the valley.
The unique village of Chalford is a mile away with its jumble of mellow cottages scattered down the hillside entwined with tortuous lanes and donkey tracks.
The farm is bounded by an old canal built in 1785 and is the starting point for many varied local walks. Each cottage has a log fire and access to telephone and washing machine. Dogs are welcome. For many years badgers have come every evening to two of the cottages and expect to be fed.
There are a surprising number of local pubs and restaurants with menus ranging from 'cordon bleu' to 'bangers & mash'.
