Welcome to Gloucestershire

In a way, it feels wrong to refer to Gloucestershire as a single place. That’s because, as anyone who lives there knows, this county is the sum of many different wonderful parts. This really makes sense, because when you consider just how much Gloucestershire has to offer, it is clear that there are many layers to this picturesque location.

The most obvious example of this is the different towns which make up the county. Examples include Cheltenham – known for its spectacular festivals of culture – as well as the charming market towns of Stroud and Dursley, each with their own fascinating history. Of course, we can’t forget the beating heart behind the county, Gloucester itself.

Not only is this just the tip of the iceberg of the pieces which make up Gloucestershire but were we to examine each of these parts properly, we would find enough attractions, experiences, history and culture to fill an entire travel guide.

There’s the otherworldly beauty of the Cotswolds, the majesty of the River Severn and the enchanting Forest of Dean. Gloucestershire can match any part of the country in the sheer magnitude of awe-inspiring sites it contains, and in the depth of its character.

Then there are the smaller things – the elements which really bring a community together. These include the small businesses like restaurants, bars and shops which keep our stomachs full and a town’s economy ticking. There are the schools which expand our minds and the transport links which expand our horizons.

There’s just so much to do, see and experience in Gloucestershire that you’ll never run out of things to explore this south-west gem. Truly, Gloucestershire is endlessly vast in so many respects. Thankfully, for those that call it home, they have a lifetime to try and experience it all.

What is Shared Ownership?

Shared Ownership is a government scheme that allows buyers to purchase a share in a property, usually between 10% and 75%, while paying a reduced market rent to a housing association on the remainder. The scheme gives first time buyers and those that do not currently own a home the opportunity to purchase a share in a new-build or resales property.
