The great outdoors

Shopping close to your new home

From your new build, you can head north to Coleford or Gloucester for a greater selection of high street shopping, or down to Chepstow. If you want to combine a designer shopping trip with eating out, and leisure, the Gloucester Quays outlet is on the Lydney side of town.
