Location - The 'Queen of the Cotswolds', Painswick arguably has more fine period buildings within a defined area than anywhere else in the Cotswolds. A friendly and welcoming community, all the facilities, pubs and restaurants of the village are within walking distance of The Old Fleece and there are numerous sport and social clubs as well as a challenging 18 hole golf course and beautiful gardens to visit at the famous Rococo Gardens. Jealously guarding its reputation as a village community, Painswick, has the feel of a small country town with its magnificent church at its centre and good local services. Strategically situated south of Gloucester and Cheltenham and west of Cirencester, the village is in an official area of natural beauty within the fold of the Cotswold hills, with spectacular views in all directions. The Painswick, the village's highly rated hotel restaurant, is a stone's throw away plus there are two popular village pubs, both serving food. The village is within easy reach of a number of good schools in the public and private sectors and has its own thriving primary school. London is circa 2 hours by road or approximately 90 minutes by rail from nearby Stroud Station and there is good access to the M5 motorway - Junction 11a - Cheltenham.
