Days Out Gloucestershire & Things To Do Glouc West Country UK

Gloucestershire is a county in the south west of England. The county comprises part of the Cotswold's, spectacular hills overlooking the Severn Valley. The Forest of Dean, which was once a Royal hunting ground, is also contained within Gloucs.

Gloucestershire is a typically English 'rustic' county. Indeed it is the home of the Cooper's Hill Cheese Rolling Event, where locals chase down a steep hill after a large Double Gloucester cheese, frequently injuring themselves.
