SoGlos has rounded-up 10 unmissable things to do in Cheltenham, the Cotswolds, the Forest of Dean, Gloucester, Stroud and Tewkesbury this August 2020.
While August 2020 isn’t like any others that we’ve experienced, there are still plenty of ways to enjoy Gloucestershire and beyond, this summer.
From eating out for less and discovering free things galore in Gloucestershire, to daytrips further afield – surfing in Bristol, exploring the confetti fields in Worcestershire and punting in Oxford – get your August calendars packed full of inspirational ideas.
Restaurants, pubs and cafés (not to mention theatres, railways and castles) across Gloucestershire will be offering 50 per cent off food and soft drinks, Monday to Wednesday, throughout August 2020 – thanks to the new Eat Out to Help Out government scheme. It’s a perfect opportunity to try out some new eateries and help support independents too.
