Just 90 minutes' drive from Bristol, the quaint village of Minster Lovell has been described as one of the prettiest in the Cotswolds to visit for a day out. But it also has a dark history with many haunting tales passed down through the centuries.
According to My London, this tucked-away village on the River Windrush has cosy thatched cottages made of Cotswold stone and has the reputation of being the most haunted village in the region. With wildflower meadows and picnic spots next to the river, the ruins of Minster Lovell Hall is an ancient and impressive monument that visitors won’t want to miss.
Records show there had been a manor house at Minster Lovell since the 12th century. Around the 1440s, the extremely wealthy William, Baron of Lovell built a grand new Minster Lovell Hall.
