Lovely walk round the grounds with the family. Way walking but a bit muddy at times. The odd rope swing and seesaw to keep the children happy

Woodchester Mansion

Woodchester Mansion is a 19th Century Victorian Gothic masterpiece mysteriously abandoned mid-construction in 1873. Hidden in a secluded Cotswold Valley, it is untouched by time and the modern world. This unique Grade 1 Listed Building has been saved from dereliction but it will never be completed, enabling visitors to view the secret building techniques of medieval Gothic builders. Special events are held throughout the year, but do check our open days and times before visiting.

An amazing looking mansion - Victorian Gothic. It is NOT a ruin but is a building site. The owners did not quite finish it, which makes for a fascinating story. That was explained to us during a 45 mins tour inside and out - fantastically explained by a local volunteer who had grown up nearby. We walked down and back from the car park - under 30 mins round trip through a lovely valley and even saw a calf being tended to soon after being born, which was an unusual bonus. Beyond the house is a lovely lake that we will go to next time - there definitely WILL be a next time.

My wife and I ate here last saturday evening. A very good experience. Covid safe , plenty of space between tables , hand sanitiser ,staff wearing visors so we could see their faces. I had crab tagliatelle , it was superb , piping hot and full of flavour . Followed by pork belly again very tasty and melt in your mouth .My wife had pork cheek followed by breast of chicken with confit potato again excellent quality. The service was friendly and no delay between courses. One of the best meals we have had for a long time , no problems recommending the Bell and we look forward to returning soon

Stunning gardens set in a beautiful backdrop of hills and valleys. We visited on a sunny day on July but I imagine it's lovely in the autumn too.
