LOCATION. The property is easily found by leaving our office in Painswick, downhill, passing the<br />

churchyard on your left. Upon reaching the Lych Gate turn right into Edge Road and Packers can be<br />

found as the second property on the right hand side located through double solid wood gates.<br />

The village of Painswick, affectionately known as “The Queen of the Cotswolds”, is one of the most<br />

popular villages in Gloucestershire, probably best known for its church spire and ninety nine yew<br />

trees. There are churches, a primary school, hotel, restaurants, two public houses and a wide variety of<br />

most interesting shops. There is a post office, medical centre, library, golf course and other<br />

recreational facilities and is an absolute delight with its quaint narrow streets and wealth of traditional<br />

Cotswold limestone houses and cottages. There are lovely country walks on Painswick Beacon with a<br />

choice of many others nearby. Westonbirt Arboretum, Slimbridge Wildfowl Trust and Polo at<br />

Cirencester Park are also easily accessible, as is the Georgian Spa town of Cheltenham with its<br />

famous racecourse, approximately 10 miles distant. Painswick is also particularly convenient for the<br />

M4 and M5 motorways and those commuting to Stroud, Gloucester, Bath, Bristol and Swindon. A<br />

main line railway station at Stroud brings London (Paddington) within 90 minutes travelling time.<br />
