Wayside is a traditional Wool Workers’ cottage in the centre of the charming Cotswold village of Painswick. This 17th-century cottage retains a host of original features as well as all the necessities of modern life having been recently fully renovated by the owners. Wayside overlooks St Mary’s famous churchyard with its 99-yew trees, a gorgeous place to sit and watch the world go by.
Painswick is on the Cotswold Way and there are lots of great walks right from the doorstep, not least to Painswick Beacon, where on a clear day you can see right across to the Malverns and Brecon Beacons. There is a leisure centre and town museum as well as great walks around the surrounding valleys and villages.

No trip to the area is complete without a visit to The Woolpack in Slad and to Stroud Brewery along the canal. Slightly further afield, wander the 250-acre Robinswood Hill Country Park, a lovely hilltop country park where you may see some of the resident foxes and badgers. Enjoy a day in the city of Gloucester, home to the medieval Gloucester Cathedral and the fascinating Museum of Gloucester, which houses exhibitions ranging from prehistoric times to the present. Gloucester is home to a wealth of pubs, restaurants, and other eateries, as well as a fabulous quay to stroll along to take in the character of the city.

Cheltenham is 8 miles distant, where there are more fabulous restaurants and great shopping. Bath and Bristol are both an hour’s drive away.
