LOCATION
Swellshill is a hidden gem of a location. Nestled in the Stroud valley with lovely views in all directions, only the well-informed would know this tucked away little lane near the village of Brimscombe, even exists. Within walking distance of Rodborough, Minchinhampton and Bownham Commons, Swellshill is surrounded by fabulous countryside with wonderful walks in all directions and the popular Winstones ice cream factory and shop within a ten minute walk. Nearby Minchinhampton has a good range of amenities with a popular pub, post office and good range of shops and Brimscombe itself is within walking distance and plays host to the Ship Inn and popular Stroud Brewery. Brimscombe Port is also in the early stages of re-development and promises an exciting array of facilities and housing with the opening up of the canal. Stroud is the nearest town and has several major supermarkets, as well as a cinema, sports facilities and mainline station. One of the key draws to the area is the excellent choice of schools with several sought after grammar schools in Stroud, Gloucester and Cheltenham.
The area is well connected for transport links with trains into London Paddington from Stroud Station, circa 90 mins and the M5 and M4 both easily accessible.
