Holidays in Gloucestershire
From honey-dipped villages to sprawling countryside adorned with ancient woodlands and golden castles, Gloucestershire is a rather special holiday destination.
National Landscapes in Gloucestershire
Home to two stunning National Landscapes, The Cotswolds and Malvern Hills, and bordering the ever-green delights of the Wye Valley, Gloucestershire was made for nature lovers. Embark on a myriad of outdoor activities, whether you fancy paddling along the River Wye, walking across the beautiful Cotswold countryside, or cycling through rolling hills, or you can enjoy a fabulous day trip and explore the dappled delights of the Forest of Dean, with woodland so ancient it inspired Tolkien’s Middle Earth. Uncover bursts of colour with wildflower meadows and fascinating windows into the past as you stroll past crumbling hill forts and grand towers.
Things to do in Gloucestershire
Whether your interests lie in history, culture, or shopping, Gloucestershire has you utterly covered when it comes to things to do. Gloucester Cathedral is a remarkable example of 12th-century architecture, while Broadway Tower offers exceptional views across 16 counties. For a day out worthy of the big screen, visit the regal Blenheim Palace or Harry Potter backdrop Lacock Abbey for that arched wow-factor. The Cotswolds’ famously pretty towns and villages are worth visiting, from the riverside charms of Bourton-on-the-Water to the market towns of Cirencester and Moreton-in-Marsh where independent shops and art galleries line the streets. For a fun-filled adventure with the family, head to Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens to see the animals or Westonbirt Arboretum to let the little ones run wild themselves.
Places to eat in Gloucestershire
With rambling farmland making up the landscapes, it’s little wonder that Gloucestershire has made quite the name for itself when it comes to eating out. A number of Michelin star restaurants have found their home in the Cotswolds’ golden stone buildings, including the fabulous Byrbrook Restaurant in picture-perfect Castle Combe. Tucked away down winding lanes and across meadowed parkland, Gloucerstershire’s pubs are always a welcoming sight when exploring the leaf-strewn countryside. Visit Cheltenham for a veritable smorgasbord of excellent eating opportunities, from The House in The Tree to wonderful Sandford Park Alehouse, or turn your feet towards Moreton-in-Marsh and dine at The Black Bear Inn for fireside feasts.
