Our town of Nailsworth is nestled in a wooded valley in the south Cotswolds, renowned for its selection of award-winning restaurants, pubs and cafés, as well as its lovely eclectic independent shops. Nailsworth is the perfect place for shopping for gifts, furnishings and antiques, art, pottery, clothes, books, health and wellbeing.

Nailsworth stands nestled between two valleys and is neighboured by Stroud.

History shows that Nailsworth was best known for its wool and cloth mills. Over the years, the mills have become restaurants, accommodation and shops, also a museum.

Nailsworth is now well known for its monthly market, which is held on the 4th Saturday of each month - and from April 2020 the market will be running on the 1st and 4th Saturday of each month, selling fresh and local produce.

The Chamber of Trade works tirelessly for the traders and to bring the community together, making Nailsworth a very friendly place to visit.

Today Nailsworth offers a selection of independent shops, with something for everyone young and old. Even dogs are welcome so a full family day out must not be missed out on!

If you enjoy celebrity-spotting - famous faces, well known MPs, actors, musicians - Nailsworth is the place to come too. Some of our favourite places and theirs - to visit are William’s Kitchen, Hobbs House Bakery (founded by The Fabulous Baker Brothers) and Wild Garlic (Jay Raynor reviewed it very favourably).

We are surrounded by beautiful footpaths so country walks along the cycle track along the old railway line are a must. You can walk among the trees that overlook the lake and, if you are lucky, you will see kingfishers and herons nesting round about.
