Around Lydney.

Lydney sits on the Severn estuary at the southern edge of the Forest of Dean, with an old harbour, the Dean Forest Railway and growing new estates. It is a practical commuter base for Gloucester, Chepstow and beyond, and new residents search online for trades and services. Customers are value-conscious. A Lydney business should name the nearby villages and the newer developments to reach more of the local market.

Coleford (6 miles), Cinderford (7 miles) and Mitcheldean (10 miles) are the nearest in the same council area. Elsewhere in Gloucestershire, Dursley (8 miles) and Wotton-under-Edge (10 miles) are within reach. Across the boundary into the next council area, Thornbury (8 miles), Chepstow (9 miles) and Monmouth (10 miles) are also close. Naming the towns you actually cover tells people straight away whether you will come to them.

Inside Lydney, the site can name areas such as Aylburton, Bream, Alvington, Whitecroft, Yorkley, Blakeney and Woolaston.

Lydney addresses fall in the GL postcode area, about 82 miles north-east of Exeter, where we are based.

Questions

Websites in Lydney: what people ask

Is Lydney too far away for you?
No. Lydney is about 82 miles north-east of Exeter, and distance makes no difference to how we work: calls, WhatsApp and a link to your design on your phone. Nothing goes live until you have approved the design, and two rounds of changes are included.
Are there business figures for Lydney on its own?
No. The ONS publishes business counts by council area, and Lydney is part of Forest of Dean, which it shares with Cinderford, Coleford, Mitcheldean and others. The figures on this page are for the whole council area.
How far is Lydney from you?
About 82 miles as the crow flies: Lydney is north-east of Exeter, in the GL postcode area. Nobody needs to travel: the whole job runs by phone, WhatsApp and video call.
Do you cover the towns around Lydney?
Yes. We work anywhere in the UK, so Coleford, Cinderford, Thornbury and Dursley are all covered. If your jobs come from several of them, the site names each one you serve, so people there can see you come to them.
