Sapperton is a small village and civil parish in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England, tucked into the rolling limestone countryside that typifies the area. The village’s honey‑coloured stone houses, narrow lanes and surrounding ridges make it a popular spot for walkers exploring the Cotswold landscape.
Historically tied to the region’s wool and rural economy, Sapperton is noted for the impressive canal engineering nearby, including the long Sapperton Tunnel on the historic Thames and Severn Canal, which hints at the village’s industrial past. Today it remains a small, close‑knit community where agriculture, heritage tourism and commuter links to larger towns all play a part in village life.
