About Watermoor
Watermoor sits on Cirencester's edge and gives you a solid everyday mix of amenities. You've got four supermarkets, ten restaurants, six cafés and seven fitness centres all within the neighbourhood. Healthcare's well covered too — there's a GP practice and two pharmacies locally, plus well-regarded dentists nearby. Schools perform well here, with Paternoster School rated Good and several other Good-rated primaries just outside the boundary. Most people drive around here, and you'll find easy access to the A417 for Gloucester, Swindon and the M4. If you use the train, you'll need to head to Kemble or Swindon first. Crime's been dropping steadily, and both burglary and vehicle crime stayed low in 2025. House prices shift depending on what you're after, but flats here are notably cheaper than in surrounding neighbourhoods — that makes this a real entry point if you've been priced out elsewhere. The air quality's excellent, and you get less rain than the national average, which is good news if you're worried about damp.
