Last week, we moved from Berkshire into a house whose sale was managed by Perry Bishop in Cirencester. We have had excellent service throughout, especially initially from Lynne and latterly from Jade, both of whose communication was always speedy, timely, appropriate, helpful and informative. I would happily recommend their services.
Diane A – October 2023
I have found the excellent customer service I received from Perry Bishop and Jade in particular to be excellent. At times we encountered a number of hitches and problems in the conveyancing process but Jade was there every step of the way to encourage and reassure me to keep me going. Thank you

Fairford guide
Fairford is a well located town that sits on a lovely stretch of the River Coln in the Cotswold Hills situated east of Cirencester, west of Lechlade and north of Swindon.
About Fairford
It has origins dating back to the 9th Century and was also an important coaching town on the old London to Gloucester route with some of the Inns and Hotels today, reminders of this bygone era.
There has been a Mill in Fairford since Medieval times, the Mill even gets a mention in the Domesday Book. In 1086 there were actually three working Mills belonging to Fairford Manor, one of which was on the site of the current Mill.
Local amenities in Fairford
Although a small town, Fairford benefits from a wide range of shops catering for everyday needs with facilities including a doctor’s surgery, hospital outpatient clinic, dentist, opticians and library.
The town has a traditional market every Wednesday with a variety of stalls including fish, cheese, fresh flowers and plants, jewellery, artisan foods and much more, along with a continental market twice a year and a festive market for Christmas on the first Friday of December.
There is a good selection of schooling around the area with Fairford having its own pre-school, primary school and secondary school.
Leisure and activities in Fairford
The town has a great community spirit and an abundance of clubs for all ages including sports clubs, environmental societies and art clubs along with many community events like the annual Town Council Festive Market and Fairford Festival which takes place over a weekend. Full of fun and filled with events for all ages, there are fun runs, live music, parades, children’s parties, art and historical photographic exhibitions. Every July, the Royal International Air Tattoo comes to town which is the biggest military air show in the world.
Fairford attracts many walkers, there are short heritage walks around the town along with picturesque walks in the countryside and along the River Coln where there is the opportunity to see kingfishers, swans, little grebe, brown trout and water voles. Cotswold Water Park offers water based activities as well as walking, cycling and wildlife spotting. It also has its own beach and despite its size, 150 lakes in 40 square miles, it’s a well kept secret.
The Walnut Tree Field located in the centre of town has something for everyone with its children’s playground, tennis courts, skate ramp, basketball net, table tennis and adult exercise equipment. Also, Farmor’s Sports Centre offers sports and fitness activities along with fitness programmes to suit people of all ages. The town is also well served with four pubs, one hotel, a great Italian restaurant in the town centre and a number of local cafés.
Transport links in Fairford
Roads running through Fairford connect the town to the M4 or M5 motorway and the closest railway station is Swindon. You’ll find frequent services to London Paddington, Swansea and Bristol Temple Meads.
