Gretton is a small, quietly rural village in the borough of Tewkesbury, in Gloucestershire, England. Set on the fringe of the Cotswold countryside, it retains an agricultural character with a mix of traditional cottages and working farms and is often home to people who commute into nearby towns while enjoying a village lifestyle.
Although compact, Gretton benefits from being close to the market town of Tewkesbury with its famous abbey and annual medieval festival, and to the rolling hills of the Cotswold. The community is typical of small English villages - quiet, with local events and countryside walking on the doorstep, and an economy shaped by farming alongside residential and commuter pressures.
