Food scene
The closest pub is the Falcon and their food is really good. Lovely relaxed atmosphere, we go there a lot! Basic Cotswold pub decor, not a designer interior if that’s your thing!

This is now called The Crown at Ampney Brook, fabulously renovated inside. Super warm contemporary Cotswold style, Just down the road toward Cirencester. Also a boutique hotel. Good and varied menu. Slightly more pricey than the Falcon.

Pretty Cotswold village, famous for the tiny medieval weavers cottages. There is a trout farm there, Arlington Mill for a mooch around, and the Swan Hotel has a nice bar for food and drink. Good walks in and around the village

Lovely Cotswold town around 40mins drive away, best to take a scenic route through the pretty villages to get there rather than the main road. Go the Barnsley, Coln Rogers, Coln St Dennis, Northleach way, so much prettier. Can be busy with tourists in the Summer! Quite a few things to do with children here.

Considered the southern gateway to the Cotswolds, Burford is a really old Cotswold town. Very beautiful with an ancient medieval bridge. These churchey photos don’t do it justice. Lots of cafes and restaurants. The Burford Garden Company is worth a visit too on the outskirts. Beautiful homeware, a lovely art gallery and big cafe… as well as loads of gorgeous garden stuff!
