Finding a proper hotel within easy reach of Stroud can be trickier than expected — many nearby options prioritise convenience over quality. Oakwood Hotel, located on Tewkesbury Road in Twigworth, offers a genuine country hotel experience with real attention to detail, easily reached via the A38 and M5.
Oakwood Hotel was created to fill a long-felt gap in the area, positioned on the peaceful outskirts of Gloucester while remaining accessible from Stroud and the wider region. The hotel’s rooms are designed with comfort and quality in mind — restful beds, thoughtful lighting, and a quiet, well-appointed setting throughout. Full details on room options are available on our rooms page.
What sets Oakwood apart from a standard hotel stay is the atmosphere built around it. Guests can start the day with coffee in The Drawing Room, unwind with a meal in The Grill, or enjoy a relaxed evening in The Pub. Food and drink are central to the Oakwood experience, with menus built around quality Gloucestershire produce, sourced thoughtfully and prepared with real care. Our dining page gives a fuller sense of what’s on offer during your stay.
Staying within easy reach of Stroud puts you within reach of Gloucester Cathedral, Robinswood Hill Country Park, and Gloucester Quays, while Cheltenham’s Regency streets and the wider Cotswolds are only a short drive beyond that.

For those visiting on business, the hotel’s location just off the A38 and close to the M5 makes it a practical choice for reaching Gloucester Business Park and the wider employment areas around the city.
