Hartpury is a small village and civil parish in the Forest of Dean district of Gloucestershire, England. It is best known for the large campus of Hartpury College and Hartpury University, which dominate local life as a major employer and attract students for agriculture, equine and sports-related courses; the campus also stages regular equestrian competitions and high‑level sports fixtures that draw visitors from across the region.
The village sits amid rolling farmland on the edge of the forested hills and the lowlands toward the city of Gloucester and the River Severn, so outdoor pursuits and farming remain important to the local economy and character. Social and cultural life is often centred on the college, the parish church and village amenities, while the area’s rural history and community events give Hartpury a distinctly village feel despite its wider educational profile.
