The short answer
We manage Google Ads for Cotswolds businesses, with campaigns built around a tourism led market where much of the demand comes from outside the area. For hospitality and retail, that means targeting people planning a visit rather than only those already nearby. Most accounts generate enquiries or bookings within the first few weeks.
The Cotswolds presents an unusual PPC challenge: your customers are often searching from London, Birmingham or further afield, days or weeks before they arrive. Radius targeting around your premises would miss almost all of them. We build campaigns around visitor intent and travel planning behaviour, layered with seasonal budget planning so spend rises ahead of demand peaks rather than chasing them.
In local Google Ads, tight geographic targeting beats broad reach every time. Paying for clicks from outside your service area is the most common waste we find in Cotswolds accounts, and it is entirely avoidable.
