Work with Cotswold Digest
Reach people who live in, visit and care about the Cotswolds through our weekly newsletter, website and growing local directory.
We offer a limited number of advertising and listing opportunities for businesses, attractions, accommodation providers, event organisers and local trades that are genuinely relevant to our readers.
Why advertise with us?
Cotswold Digest gives local businesses a straightforward way to reach people with a genuine interest in the Cotswolds. Advertising is clearly identified and deliberately limited, giving every participating business space to be noticed.
A local audience
Our readers live in the Cotswolds, visit regularly or have a genuine connection to the area. They are actively looking for places to visit, businesses to support and things to do.
Limited placements
We limit the number of commercial placements available in each newsletter and across the website. Your business will not be lost among an endless collection of advertisements.
Editorial independence
Our reviews, recommendations and CD Picks remain completely independent. Paid partnerships are always clearly identified, helping us protect the trust of our readers.
2026 founding prices
We are offering reduced prices throughout 2026 while the Cotswold Digest audience continues to grow.
