About Gloucestershire

There’s so much to discover and enjoy here in Gloucestershire, from the great outdoors to arts and culture, sports and socialising, to fine foods and great shopping.  And as well as being the gateway to the South West, we’re well connected to the rest of the county and within easy travelling distance of London, so whatever you’re looking for, you’re sure to find in here in Gloucestershire.

Scenically beautiful...

Over half of Gloucestershire’s 1025 square miles have been designated as areas of outstanding natural beauty, including parts of the Cotswolds, the Wye Valley and the Forest of Dean.  When you venture out into the countryside you’ll find no end of beautiful villages, picturesque hamlets and tranquil countryside. 

Diverse towns and cities.....

Gloucester, the county town, has plenty on offer and is everything you’d expect from a vibrant, multi-cultural British city.  It’s also home to one of the finest medieval buildings in the country; the breath-taking cathedral which has also formed the backdrop of many scenes in Doctor Who and Harry Potter files.  From the Victoria Docks to the array of restaurants and shops at Gloucester Quays, the city is an unique blend of historic charm and modern attraction.

Cheltenham is the county’s cultural heart, resplendent with its celebrated Georgian architecture and world-renowned festivals of literature and music.  The famous race course is home to the Gold Cup.

Stroud is home to an awarding-winning Farmer’s Market, while Cirencester is a beautiful town in the heart of the Cotswolds. 

Well connect.......

Thanks to excellent road, motorways and rail links, London is just two hours away and the cities of Birmingham and Bristol are even closer.
