Directions via Google Maps
By road
Follow brown signs to ‘Roman Villa’ from A429. From M5, Midlands or Oxfordshire follow A40 to Northleach roundabout (intersection of A40 and A429), then go south on the A429, turning right off the A429 just past Northleach to follow signs to ‘Roman Villa’. From M4, Swindon or South West, head to Cirencester, then go north on the A429, turning left at Fossebridge to follow signs to ‘Roman Villa’. NB: Make sure to follow signs to ‘Roman Villa’, not to ‘Chedworth’. There are currently no signs from other approaches (e.g. A417 or A40/ A436 via Withington). Therefore unless you have a sat nav or a detailed map of the area, it is strongly advisable to approach by the A429 following the brown signs.
Parking: Parking for 35 cars within 20m of the visitor centre, and an additional 10-15 cars in the lay-by on the lane 50m from the visitor centre.
