Cotswolds Sustainability ∙ Nurture nature, empower community, protect heritage

Living and doing business sustainably is crucial for the well-being of our planet and future generations. In the Cotswolds, this is especially important as we strive to preserve the region’s unique natural beauty and cultural heritage.

Embracing sustainable practices means making conscious choices that minimise our environmental impact, support local communities, and promote a circular economy. This can involve reducing waste, conserving energy and water, sourcing local and ethical products, and supporting businesses that prioritise sustainability.

By adopting a sustainable lifestyle and doing business responsibly, we can ensure that the Cotswolds remains a vibrant and thriving region for years to come.

The green gastronomy revolution in the Cotswolds

There’s a community of people, eateries, and produce shops in the Cotswolds that are emerging as trailblazers in sustainable dining. Our beautiful region is much celebrated for its abundant local ingredients and commitment to homegrown produce, and this powerful movement is sweeping through its culinary scene, with the best and most sustainability-conscious restaurants and cafes wholeheartedly embracing this ethos.

These establishments are not just offering good food; they’re creating exceptional menus that showcase the freshest seasonal bounty sourced directly from local farms and allotments. This dedication reduces food miles, supports local economies, and ensures unparalleled flavour and quality. By championing this farm-to-fork approach, the Cotswolds is setting a vibrant example, proving that delicious dining and environmental responsibility can and should go hand-in-hand.

We’re happy to support these fantastic eateries and businesses, and we’ve personally experienced many… these are some of our wonderful experiences eating green and sustainably in the Cotswolds:
