Make sure you get to explore the county's best attractions in comfort and style on your trip to Gloucestershire. The historic cathedral of Gloucester is a gateway to England’s West Country. Highlights include Gloucester Cathedral, an imposing building that dates from the 11th century, and the resting place of Edward II. Gloucester Quays is a popular shopping and entertainment destination, while sports fans can enjoy rugby at Kingsholm stadium. To the west of the city is the Forest of Dean, an ancient woodland and one of the most spectacular forests found in the United Kingdom.

The Cotswolds is home to some of the most stunning rural landscapes in England. Gentle hills and picturesque stone-built villages create a spectacular destination to explore. There are also several historic homes and castles in the Cotswolds, including Chastleton House, Snowshill Manor, Chavenage, Sudeley Castle and Berkeley Castle. The Cotswold Water Park is the largest of its kind in Britain, with more than 130 lakes, about five miles south of Cirencester.

Cirencester is a beautiful market town on the edge of the Cotswolds. The Roman Amphitheatre and the Corinium Museum are top attractions in the ancient town, which is a popular destination for shoppers, and famous for polo at Cirencester Great Park. Other notable towns in the Cotswolds include Bourton-on-the-Water, which is about 16 miles north of Cirencester. The charming and attractive village boasts fine examples of the golden stone buildings that are synonymous with the Cotswolds.

Cheltenham emerged as a spa town in the early 18th century. Its healing waters became popular after King George III visited the area in 1788. Gorgeous examples of Regency architecture are found throughout the town. Cheltenham hosts Gold Cup horse racing every March and the Cheltenham Racecourse is the terminus for the heritage Gloucestershire & Warwickshire Railway to Toddington.

Make the most of your rental car by seeing more of what the South West of England has to offer. Day trip options from Gloucestershire include Birmingham, England’s second city and a major shopping and entertainment destination in the Midlands. Other popular destinations outside Gloucestershire are Warwick, Bristol and Oxford. South Wales is also a short drive away, via the M4 or A40, including the picture-perfect town of Ross-on-Wye and the bustling Welsh capital of Cardiff.

Cities and towns in Gloucestershire have plenty of parking options, often only a short walk from town and city centers. In Gloucester, road parking is available close to the city center. Pay and display car parks are also found throughout the city center. Car parks are also found close to Cirencester’s town center and along the High Street. There are local parking restrictions, so it is important to take note of any signposts.

Extra care is needed when driving in Gloucestershire’s rural areas. Certain roads are only passable by one vehicle at a time. Wildlife also presents a challenge, especially cows that stand or lie in the road, particularly during the night in the Cotswolds. The Cotswolds and its villages are very popular during summer months and bank holiday weekends. During these times, crowded car parks and traffic are possible. There may also be congestion on the M5 close to the M4 during summer months and Friday afternoons, as well as bank holidays.
