The market town of Cirencester is very close to our cottages and is a great place to grab a bite to eat, go shopping or just explore - it is steeped in history having been the second biggest town after London in Roman times.

Known as the capital of the Cotswolds, Cirencester is home to a Roman amphitheatre as well as the highest yew hedge in the world! In medieval times it was a prosperous wool town and is synonymous with narrow streets and honey-coloured stone buildings.
