Hailes Abbey enjoys a beautiful setting on the western fringe of the Cotswolds surrounded by wooded pasture. In the Middle Ages the Cistercian Abbey was one of the main centres of pilgimages in Britain due to a phial possessed by the monks said to contain the blood of Christ. The museum displays include some fine examples of medieval sculpture and decorated floor tiles.
