National Trust - Chedworth Roman Villa

A nice place to wander round, I highly recommend the audio guide as it gives you lots of extra valuable information. There's the usual national trust shop snd cafe, scones were good. Needs a couple of hours to take it all in I'd say. Parking close by is limited, but there is an overflow car park a short walk away. Quite a lot of the site and exhibit is outdoors so suits better weather.

Pleasant visit, taking about 90 minutes in total. Café closed earlier than published time - disappointing having walked around outside, expecting to get a hot drink back in main building to find it had closed early. OK few visitors on site that day, but could have given earlier indication.

Expertly done visitor experience. Far more extensive ruins and well preserved mosaics than I expected. 2 sections to onsite car park (which is one way in and out). Overspill car park nearby if busy. Well worth a visit

Loved it! It's been years since I last visited. Now you can really see the amazing mosaics. The audio guide was great and had a chdrens section with little games for them to do. It kept my 10 year old engaged. There is also an excellent children's guide book for the site.Well worth a visit!

24th August 2024If you have any interest in history this is one you should visit. Everything is well labeled and the illustrated booklet has a guide in it. The mosaics are beautiful, the Manor must have been magnificent in its hay day. Access can be difficult on the narrow road. Save yourself time by going straight to the alternative car park. A great day out.

Good Roman remains can be few and far between in the UK, but it's always nice when a site is active, interactive, conserved and accessible. The guides are informative and kind, and clearly very knowledgeable and qualified, while the site is fantastic. the gardens are what you'd expect, but the mosaics have been conserved and presented similarly to those at Fishbourne Roman Palace, so are well worth visiting. The fee to enter is £13 which is a little on the steep end, there is a lovely little cafe and dining space, and the gift shop is pretty neat too. Car parking is ample for cars, minibuses, or coaches and I struggle to believe that they would fill up.

Interesting to see the amazing mosaics from the remains of this Roman Villa dated around AD300. Nice modern welcome building incorporating a smallish cafe. Friendly staff. Well worth a visit of you're in the area.

Located in beautiful rural countryside, down narrow lanes you find the Roman Villa.With a poor phone signal, you feel like you have gone back in time. It is a short walk from the car park to the site entrance.I didn't really know what to expect, but I wasn't disappointed.The highlight being a modern conservation building, which provides exceptional access to the extensive mosaic floors, hypocaust systems and bath house rooms.

The best Roman Villa in Britain and superbly curated and supported by the National Trust staff.Parking is at a premium and the approach road is single track most of the time.Very good amenities including a good cafe and shop.We learnt a lot about the Romans at the time of the villa and it's spa.

A super historical site to visit. Beautifully kept and preserved with a good visitors centre, and interesting displays alongside the covered mosaic floors. Well worth visiting.
