Gotherington Village Store - Tewkesbury

What a gem. A true community hub. A great place to sit and relax over coffee. Books to read. Craft table for children. So friendly, time passes quickly. Local crafts to purchase, small convenience purchases and a post office. Meet with friends or go on your own, you will be left in peace or you can chat with others. Highly recommend.

Nice people that own the shop but since they have been there, about 7 months, they have changed the opening hours a number of times. Difficult to plan regular purchases on the way to work etc as they do not open early enough. I now stop at shops in Bishops Cleeve for paper. magazines and chocolate etc. as they are open from quite early. They are also closed at a time when I used to call in for bits and pieces on my way home.

I visited Gotherington Village Store and Post Office very recently, with a group of friends and had a wonderful experience. First impressions on entering were very positive, finding a very spacious, light and airy premises, with high ceilings and decorated to enhance the light and airy ambience. Much different and better than my own local, dark and pokey local Post Office Village store. The welcome from the proprietors, was very friendly and the food, coffee were first class. it would hard to to find a better Village Store/Post Office and I would have no hesitation to recommending fellow travellers to visit this establishment. We certainly have put it on our list to visit again.

We called in for a warm up after a cold day working in the area. We were warmly welcomed by the lady and were served a rather delicious homemade cake and excellent coffee. Lovely atmosphere and good selection of treats! Lots of lovely local produce for sale too. We will be back next time we're in the area!

We stopped off here for cake and a brew after 43 miles of Cotswold cycling. Paul and Kate were really welcoming and had a splendid selection of cakes. I had ginger cake with a fine double espresso, Nik enjoyed chocolate Guinness cake with a pot of Earl Grey, and Ed demolished a chocolate orange cookie washed down with a can of Rio (Philistine! . Our bike routes will definitely go that way again!
