The Local Area

Very few locations offer such a variety of local attractions. Bath, Bristol, the Cotswolds, Cirencester, Malmesbury, Castle Combe and Cheltenham are all close by as are Bristol Airport, Cardiff and South Wales.

There’s wildlife and nature at Slimbridge Wildfowl Trust, Bristol Zoo and of course Westonbirt National Arboretum.

Historic houses and gardens abound at Dyrham Park, Doddington, Bowood, Berkeley Castle, Laycock Abbey, Sudeley Castle and many more.
