The village of Lacock ("lay-cock") lies at the southern edge of the Cotswolds, in the South West of England. Originally a centre of the medieval wool trade and part of the estate of Lacock Abbey, the whole village is now owned by the National Trust. Here there are no television aerials, no yellow lines and no overhead cables. Within easy reach of Lacock - itself less than two hours from London - lie a wealth of England's most famous sights. The Roman City of Bath is 12 miles away. Stonehenge and Avebury 40 minutes drive, and the historic houses of Wiltshire, Somerset and Gloucestershire, together with the Cathedral cities of Salisbury and Wells all within a days sightseeing. The renowned antique centres of Bradford on Avon and Hungerford are both close by. |
In the village , famous for its Abbey and the Fox-Talbot Museum of Photography is the "Sign of the Angel", a 15th Century wool merchants house. Run by the Levis family since 1953 "The Angel" is the quintessential English Inn. Always relaxed and comfortable, there are log fires and oak panelling, low beams and squeaky floor boards; and always George and Lorna on hand to offer friendly and informal service. Click here
