About Yanworth

Yanworth is a quaint village and civil parish nestled in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, located 14 miles southeast of Cheltenham. With a small population of around 300, which declined to 112 in the 2011 census, the village is primarily situated on the Stowell Park estate, owned by Lord (Sam) Vestey. Notably, St Michael's Church, dating back to circa 1200, lies just outside the village, adding historical significance to the area for potential planning considerations. The settlement has a population of approximately 107 (2021 estimate). It sits within the Cotswold district.

In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Yanworth a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
