Things to do
around Nailsworth

Nailsworth is the kind of Cotswold town you can take at walking pace and still not exhaust in a day. Within roughly two miles you'll find 42 places to eat and drink, which tells you something about how the town spends its time, alongside 17 shopping places, six spots to visit, six places to stay, two venues for events and culture, four services and one activities place. It suits visitors who like independent shops over chains, a long lunch over a quick one, and the option of basing themselves here for a few nights rather than passing through.

A good few hours might start with something from Hobbs House, eaten outside if the weather allows, before you work your way through the shops — Honeytrap and Phenomenal are both worth your time, and neither takes long to browse. If you've brought children or simply fancy something less sedate, Whack Club fills an afternoon. Check what's on at the Performing Arts Centre before you arrive, since an evening show pairs well with dinner, and round things off at the Village Inn.
