We're in our founding year — subscriber numbers are growing every week. Brands coming in now get the lowest rates we'll ever offer and outsized share of voice while the list builds.
Hyperlocal
Every reader is Cotswolds-based or has a genuine connection to the area. No broad national scatter.
One sponsor per issue
No competing ads. When you sponsor an issue, you own the space — your brand isn't fighting for attention.
Editorial trust
Our CD Picks and honest reviews build genuine reader trust. That trust extends to the brands we work with.
