About Gloucestershire

 
Gloucestershire is a fantastic place to train, work and live. So why not take a look at what the county has got to offer!

  

It has fantastic views and walks in the idyllic Cotswold countryside, with lots of Cotswold villages to visit.

 

                     

 

The county is steeped in history; just take a look at these castles.

 

                                                       

 

 

If it's days out you want then think about the following:-

 

Slimbridge Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust

Sudeley Castle

The Forest of Dean

Westonbirt Arboretum

Cattle Country

Berkley Castle

                                                

 

This is to name just some of what the county has on offer.

 

There are also local country pubs where good food and beer are served, or indeed if you like just a quiet drink there are plenty of public houses that you can go to.


                    

If museums are your thing then there is always Gloucester Docks and the Waterways Museum or indeed the Gloucester Perfumery. 

 

 

                   

 

 

For those of you who like a flutter consider a trip to Cheltenham Racecourse.  There are several events held each year and it is definitely a grand day out, get dressed up; enjoy the races and some good food and company.
