Situated at the top of a hill on the Cotswold escarpment, the pretty town of Minchinhampton is an ancient market town and a good stop-off for a mid-ride coffee. Minchinhampton Common is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and looked after by the National Trust - the summer wildflowers and butterflies are incredible.
