Cotswold stone is a natural limestone quarried from the Cotswolds region in England, prized for its soft, creamy tones and warm golden colours. Cotswold stone has been used for centuries across the UK and remains a popular choice for landscaping, building, dry stone walling, and decorative gravel projects. Its timeless beauty and versatility make it ideal for both traditional and contemporary designs.
