Haresfield is a small village and civil parish in the district of Stroud, Gloucestershire, in south‑west England. It sits on the lower slopes of the Cotswolds above the Severn Vale, with rolling farmland and wooded pockets that give attractive views across the vale; its countryside setting and network of footpaths make it popular with walkers and nature lovers. Close transport links, including the nearby M5 and mainline rail, mean many residents commute to Gloucester and Bristol.
The place retains a distinctly rural character: traditional stone cottages, farmsteads and a small, tight‑knit community with parish activities rather than a large commercial centre. Historic building lines and field patterns hint at its long agricultural past, while proximity to market towns such as Stonehouse and Stroud gives easy access to shops and services.
