Lower Moor

The surrounding countryside has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which gives you a sense of the quality of the hills and valleys that define this part of the world. It's a genuinely quiet place, the kind of spot where you can walk through pastoral farmland without encountering crowds, and experience how the Cotswolds actually function as a living region rather than just a visitor destination. If you're looking for a peaceful base to explore this less-trafficked corner, Lower Moor delivers that in spades. The village itself offers an authentic feel of settlement life here, away from the busier towns that draw most of the attention in the area. It's the sort of place where you come to slow down, take in the landscape, and get a real sense of what the Cotswolds countryside is actually like day to day.
