Ashley is a compact village and civil parish in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England, set on the rolling limestone uplands of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It lies a few miles north of Tetbury, surrounded by drystone walls, pasture and arable fields, with a network of public footpaths and bridleways that make it popular with walkers and riders.
Historically an agricultural community, Ashley retains honey-coloured stone cottages, farmhouses and several listed buildings, and its parish church has medieval origins. The local economy now mixes farming with small craft and service enterprises and commuters to nearby market towns, while village life remains focused on local events and the village hall, and the quiet historic character attracts visitors seeking a peaceful Cotswold experience.
