Situated in the South Cotswolds, Giddeahall is a tiny hamlet just a mile from the bustling village of Yatton Keynell, with convenient access to a mainline train station at Chippenham (approx. 4 miles) offering easy travel to London in under an hour. The historic cities of Bath & Bristol are also within easy reach. This rural oasis is perfectly positioned for those seeking the ideal country lifestyle - at its centre lie a quaint shop and post office, 13th-century church, and traditional pub, with a doctors surgery and dental practice a stone's throw away. The local primary school, Bybrook Valley School, was rated 'Outstanding' in its last Ofsted report, and further excellent primary and secondary comprehensive schools can be found in Chippenham. There are also extremely well regarded fee-paying independent schools in Bath and Corsham. The village hall runs a variety of classes, including pilates and ballroom, with a modern playground, tennis court, and fitness area located outside. Plenty of public footpaths make exploring Wiltshire's scenic countryside easy, winding past Halfpenny Pool, the beautiful Biddestone village duck pond. The historic villages of Castle Combe and Lacock are close by, as is the luxurious Manor House Golf Club. The market towns of Chippenham & Corsham are just a short distance by car, or regular bus services, offering a range of shops and restaurants.
