The Parish offers two welcoming pubs, each serving delicious meals in a cosy atmosphere. For history enthusiasts, the Chedworth Roman Villa is a must-see (2 miles by foot). This ancient site offers a glimpse into Roman Britain with its well-preserved mosaics and bathhouses. The walk to the villa also passes through the serene Chedworth Nature Reserve, perfect for wildlife spotting and enjoying the countryside. Alternatively, visit the Corinium Museum in Cirencester (8 miles) to delve deeper into the region's Roman heritage. For those seeking a blend of culture and shopping, the regency town of Cheltenham is 10 miles away. Known for its festivals, boutique shops, and fine dining, Cheltenham offers something for everyone.

The inviting lounge/diner welcomes you with its wooden beams and an inglenook fireplace, complete with a crackling wood burner for cosy evenings curled up on the sofa. Wander through to the country-style kitchen, where you’ll find everything you need to prepare a delicious meal. Head upstairs to discover the enchanting double bedroom, a dreamy retreat tucked beneath the sloping roof. The stylish bathroom is nestled under the eaves, offering space to unwind with a soothing soak after a day of exploring.

Mr Armstrong
This cottage is charming, relaxing, and just all-around perfect! We had such a wonderful time staying here. The owners are so kind, helpful, and hospitable. The cottage itself is perfect for a couple on a restful vacation, offering a charming front garden to enjoy tea or coffee and sun as well as fully-equipped rooms and a comforting wood-burning fire. Chedworth itself is a quieter village in the Cotswolds, which was exactly what we were looking for, but is also very accessible by bike (what we did) or car to all the other key tourist destinations in the area. Truly a perfect stay! We hope to be back.

This property is in a lovely location. Ideal spot for exploring the Cotswolds. The owners gave us a warm welcome and were friendly and helpful with everything we needed. Cake and fresh flowers were a very much appreciated welcome to the start of our short break. The location is quiet and tranquil, an ideal place for a peaceful getaway, but within easy reach of places to eat and to visit. The bed is comfortable and we had a good nights sleep each night. The log burner and plentiful supply of logs were very welcome in the chilly evenings in April.
