Luxury self-catering accommodation in Stroud
Once the centre of the cloth industry, the Cotswold town of Stroud has a bohemian heart and a glut of fair-trade and independent stores, along with a vibrant arts scene.
Hosting an array of colourful art festivals throughout the year, Stroud is an unassuming town on the western edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The countryside surrounding is as quintessential, encompassing pockets of native woodland and rolling hills aplenty. Hikers, walkeres and outdoor enthusiasts will be in their element on holiday here, with trails upon trails for exploration on foot, or bicycle, crisscrossing in every direction (and a torrent of inns to fill your boots as you go!).
Within the town boundaries itself, a host of attractions await; a museum in Stratford Park will delight little dinosaur lovers, while culture vultures will revel in Stroud’s historic trail, which takes visitors on a mile-long route through the town’s most poignant locations. Of course, what’s a market town without it’s market? Every Saturday morning the award-winning farmers' markets fills Cornhill Market Place with free range meat, regional cheese and homemade preserves; perfect for picnics on your luxury self-catering escape.
