EATING OUT
The area is spoilt for choice on eating out within 2 or 3 miles. The info folder in the cottage will give you plenty of my ideas locally or I can give you a few of my recommendations to look up before staying.
We have a few suggestions easily walkable- short distance but "up hill home".
A short walk from the cottage is Stroud Brewery on the canal, the quirky Felt cafe in the bend of the River Frome, the Remedy (Long table) a sharing food charity ( fun and funky) , the Ship Inn for a Sunday lunch roast. There is even the Burleigh Court Hotel for a nice evening drink, celebration dinner, even spa.
TO DO
There is genuinely so much to do and see....
A Saturday morning a visit to the amazing Strouds' award winning farmers market 2 miles away is a must, if only to experience the Stroud buzz, and you can walk all the way there along the canal. (Tourist info in Stroud "Sub" Rooms)
Wonderful walks on the beautiful NT common in AONB where cows and horses free roam from May to November , excellent eating out, attend an auction, as on TV, Berkeley castle, Wildfowl Park at Slimbridge, Westonbirt Arboretum, Woodchester mansion, Stroud brewery, picnics at Beaufort or Cirencester polo in the summer, vintage shopping, plenty of golf courses and well situated for visiting many picturesque Cotswolds villages too...
Painswick & the Rococo gardens 15minutes away
