Once a hub of England's booming wool industry, Stow-on-the-Wold is now better known for the quality of its antique shops and galleries. You can easily lose several hours browsing the independent shops and boutiques that line the streets and market square, and there are a wonderful variety of cosy pubs, chic restaurants and traditional cafes to restore your energy after a busy day of shopping.
Now a haven of understated luxury, Stow-on-the-Wold has played an important part in English history, remnants of which are still visible. King Charles I passed through the town several times and St Edward's Church was used as a temporary prison to hold royalist forces defeated in the last battle of the English Civil War. The Market Cross and stocks (which are now sited on the green) date back to the 15th Century, as do many of the houses, while an inn has stood on the site of the Royalist Hotel on Digbeth Street for over one thousand years.
We are proud to have a fantastic range of holiday accommodation in Stow-on-the-Wold. Whether you spend your days shopping, walking and exploring all it has to offer, or do nothing more energetic than relaxing in front of a roaring log fire in a pub, you will fall in love with Stow-on-the-Wold.
