The charming riverside town of Lechlade-on-Thames lies just 1.5 miles to the east. Positioned at the highest navigable point of the River Thames, Lechlade boasts a thriving town centre with an excellent selection of independent shops, including well-known antique dealers, along with a wide variety of welcoming cafes, pubs, and restaurants.
To the west, approximately 10.9 miles away, is Cirencester, often referred to as the Capital of the Cotswolds. This historic market town has a rich and fascinating past, having once been the second largest town in Roman Britain, known as Corinium Dobunnorum. Its prosperity during the medieval wool trade shaped the town's distinctive character, seen today in its beautiful honey-coloured stone buildings and charming narrow streets.
The Market Place forms the heart of Cirencester and hosts a traditional Charter Market every Monday and Friday, alongside a popular Farmers' Market on the second and fourth Saturday of each month. The town offers an outstanding range of independent shops, boutiques, antique emporiums, craft stores, and national retailers, making it a delightful destination for shopping and exploration.
Cirencester Park, the 3,000-acre estate of Earl Bathurst, was designed by Alexander Pope and is open daily to the public. Visitors are free to explore the expansive 19th-century parkland, accessed through the entrance gates on Cecily Hill.
Cirencester is also renowned for its diverse dining scene. Whether enjoying a fine three-course meal, afternoon tea, traditional pub fare, or a relaxed drink with friends, the town offers an impressive variety of restaurants, cafes, and public houses to suit every taste.
