There are plenty of bus, train and park and ride services available across Gloucestershire, while the county council has also invested money into the region’s walking and cycling infrastructure to boost sustainable travel. If you do need to drive, the M5 motorway passes through the west of the county close to Bristol Channel, which you can use to head north all the way to Birmingham. 

What is the Gloucestershire property scene like?

As you’d expect from a large county, there are properties across Gloucestershire to suit all different types of tastes and budgets, whether you’re after a 1 bedroom flat or a vast detached home. House prices are significantly higher than the UK average, but you can still find great value in the area. 

Hunts Grove, for example, is an impressive little neighbourhood on the southern outskirts of Gloucester, where you’ll find a superb collection of contemporary 2, 3 and 4 bedroom new build houses.
