Wedding in Frampton on Severn
This summer, I'm attending a wedding in Frampton on Severn. We're taking the train from London (Paddington to Stonehouse). We're only staying 2 days in the area until we return to London. I'm very unfamiliar with this location and I'm trying to figure out where can find a hotel/b&b that will be fairly close to the wedding but still leave us time to explore the area with our one day of leisure. Any suggestions?

Here is a nice B&B in Frampton http://www.thetrueheart.co.uk/
But to really explore the area, you might want to rent a car for a couple of days. Then you could stay anywhere. |
Frampton is a pretty village, and that looks a nice B&B that janis has found for you. It's on the lane that leads to the church so you'll be able to walk to the wedding!
Will you be renting a car? This company operate close to Stonehouse, and would probably meet you at the station. http://www.1stcallautorentals.co.uk/ There are fairly limited bus services from Frampton, see them here... http://www.carlberry.co.uk/rfnlistr.asp?L1=FRA002&op=D Of course there are many more bus routes once you get to Gloucester or Stroud, but it's a lot of fuss and bother. If you want a very nice hotel there's an Elizabethan manor house - Stonehouse Court http://www.stonehousecourt.co.uk/index.php?item=87 and at the other end of the scale... http://www.travelodge.co.uk/search_a...hp?hotel_id=99 |
Thank you both for the information. I was already looking into possibly staying at the True Heart, but wow, that Stonehouse Court manor looks beautiful.
Not sure about renting a car. If we stay at the True Heart (right near the wedding), is there much to see in this area in one day? |
If you look at the True Heart's website, and click on the Things to Do, they detail what you can see and do ''within easy walkable/cyclable (sic) distance''.
Surprisingly, I don't see Berkeley Castle mentioned. You could get a taxi there, it is only a few miles from Frampton. |
