This small, tranquil settlement offers a true taste of the quieter Cotswolds.

It's the kind of place where you can unwind, surrounded by classic rolling hills and open fields. Here, life moves at a gentler pace, inviting you to simply be. You'll find a collection of beautiful stone homes, typical of the region, each with its own character, contributing to the timeless feel of the area. There aren't grand attractions here, but the charm lies in its simplicity and the opportunity for peaceful walks through the countryside. It’s an ideal spot for those looking to escape the bustle and enjoy the natural landscape.

The footpaths around provide lovely routes for exploring, offering open views of the surrounding area. Historically, like many small Cotswolds communities, its roots are in agriculture, with its buildings reflecting centuries of local craftsmanship. For a slightly livelier feel or amenities, you're close to spots like Rodmarton and Coates, and it’s a short distance from Sapperton, known for its historic canal tunnel. Other close neighbours include Tarlton Down, Jackaments Bottom, and Ash Hill, making it a good base for exploring this particular stretch of Gloucestershire countryside.
