Often referred to as the capital of the Cotswolds, the market
town of Cirencester is a popular destination for those looking to
discover this beautiful part of the UK.
Why Cirencester?
Cirencester is a town alive with history; it was once the
second-largest town in Roman Britain, known as Corinium Dobunnorum,
evidence of which you can now see at the town's Corinium
Museum. The town has developed and is now an appealing centre with
narrow streets lined with traditional Cotswold honey-stone
buildings. From your Cirencester cottage, explore the many
boutiques, visit the market or enjoy a pint in one of the many
traditional pubs in Cirencester. Get all your Cirencester cottage
