To most people, if they have heard of Chastleton at all, the name probably means little more than the superb Jacobean house owned by the National Trust, but behind the house is a quiet little Cotswold village comprising a couple of farms and a few cottages and little more. Chastleton House is one of the finest Jacobean mansions in the country and attracts many visitors each year. Image cannot be loaded
