Cheltenham and Gloucester and Surrounding Areas 

Country garden in the Cotswolds

With a foot in town and country, glorious Gloucestershire has plenty to be proud of.

From chic shopping to the great outdoors, it enjoys 21st century living embraced by picture perfect views.

From nightclubs to National Hunt racing and a wealth of festivals, leafy Cheltenham has something for everyone, night and day. Cradled by the Cotswolds, everything from windsurfing to canoeing on the South Cerney Lakes is only a bus ride away.

First put on the map by Emperor Nerva, and having taken shape on the River Severn, Gloucester’s Victorian Docks are packed with things to see and do.

Its ancient cross is now a gateway to shops, cafes and markets, and its bustling streets contrast with the calm of the city’s ancient Cathedral, which has dominated the view for a millennium.

From water sports to walking, comedy nights to café culture, Gloucestershire’s diversity is its strength.
