r/Gloucestershire

38M, single (gay) adoptive Dad, looking to move to a larger property somewhere (!) near-ish Bristol, and considering Stroud or surroundings. Budget £600k. Only ever lived in Bristol (Clifton, BS1 and Redland), but looking for more space (3+ bed, garden, ideally parking), access to countryside and solid community feel. I WFH so commute not too important, but like Bristol and would be good to be able to get in easily for weekend day trips at least. Keen to hear people's thoughts on what Stroud is like as a place to live. Thank you in advance

Hi, i live in Gloucestershire hence I’m posting, but I want to try and find contacts around my area. Does anyone here use cb radios still? Or know anyone that does? Thanks

I’m looking for a function room with outdoor space for the 30th August preferably with a bar but still self-catering for 45 people near barnwood, light and airy not so stuffy old man’s social club, any ideas?

(For my daughters Baptism)

Hi everyone, Ive got to the age where I spend my weekends at Go Outdoors and have therefore got into Paddleboarding. Does anyone have suggestions of nice places to Paddle? Ive done, Sharpness, The Fleet Inn, Lower Lode so far.

Anyone hear or see what sounded like a fast AF jet just now. Nothing on Flight radar.

Our little family is looking to move to the area. Truth be told we’re looking at Gloucestershire and Herefordshire but I’m leaning towards the Forest of Dean villages for the Forest and rental prices!

Would so so love any recommendations. Schools are super important (primary and secondary) and we want to stay under 1500 (the lesser the better)and need a minimum 3 bed.

I work remotely so we can go wherever.

I’m finding the whole process overwhelming because I moved from America 3 years ago and don’t really know the uk well and my husbands lived in the same town in the south his whole life!

Also If any mums who have a toddler want to be friends hit me up!

Also if you’ve got any recommendations for family friendly things to do or any cool historical things as my husband and I love that sort of thing .

Please tell me any place showing today’s match on big screen with crowd.

Did you know the council want to start charging for DIY waste at the tip?

Sign the petition here before their meeting on the 22nd.

Can anyone recommend anywhere in Gloucestershire for afternoon tea as a gift?

I like to gift my sons teachers one at the end of term, but everywhere I knew seems to be changing management, etc..

Going to the forest on this Friday!
Mind to join me m27?! DM.

Why they aren’t showing FIFA remaining matches on pillar & lucy square. Honestly, it was fun to see matches in crowd to cheers and enjoy.
