Rural peace
Birdsong, and the attentions of a friendly mixed breed herd of young cattle over the fence made us feel we had truly got away from it all. Cut grass and hard standings, adequate toilet and shower facilities were all welcome. (Cobwebs and a bit of black mould, but they were cleaned daily.) At the foot of the Cotswold escarpment, you follow quiet narrow lanes with passing places to get to local towns and attractions. The surrounding countryside is riddled with public footpaths although many hayfields were just about to be cut so grass was long. Frocester Hill viewpoint, Uley Bury fort, and Prema, a charming arts centre with cafe at Uley were all nearby. Woodchester NT woods and mansion, and the artsy village of Nailsworth are a bit further, plus Slimbridge Wildfowl Trust and Westonbirt Arboretum. The owners did not make themselves known and there is little information, but this is a hands-off approach which is fine by us!
