Location - Minchinhampton appeals to a mix of generations, not least because of its beautiful Common land which is in the stewardship of The National Trust. Compact with a historic core, it is a friendly and welcoming town with excellent facilities. Its shops include a well-stocked general store, an excellent butcher, a Boots chemist and a Post Office. There are two cafes, a fish and chip shop and The Crown gastro pub, all within a short stroll. Minchinhampton's excellent primary school is highly regarded and Beaudesert Park pre and prep school is around a three minute drive across the Common with nearby Stroud having both boys and girls’ grammar schools. London is circa 2 hours from Minchinhampton by road or about 90 minutes by train from nearby Stroud station. Stroud has a large Waitrose and several other supermarkets.

Local sports clubs include tennis with flood lit courts, cricket, football and rugby, the town has two golf clubs (with a choice of challenging courses), while the open expanse of the Common is only about five minutes’ walk away.
