Location
1 Talbot Square is located within the prestigious Talbot Square development on the west side of the town and close to the former cricket pitch and countryside.
Stow-on-the-Wold is situated in an elevated position and came to prominence during the 17th and 18th Centuries primarily due to the wool trade. As such, many fine buildings were constructed around The Square, for which the town is well known. There is an excellent variety of hotels, guest and public houses. Many of the shops are boutique style and are sufficient for everyday requirements and in addition there is a recently extended supermarket on the northern edge of the town.
Bourton-on-the-Water is 4 miles to the south and Moreton-in-Marsh is 4 miles to the north. Both have an extensive range of shops and facilities. Bourton-on-the-Water benefits from The Cotswold School, a public leisure centre and a recently extended medical centre. Moreton-in-Marsh also benefits from a range of hostelries, a new NHS hospital and medical centre. Local train stations in Moreton-in-Marsh and Kingham provide frequent services to London and Oxford.
