This three-storey Victorian house is an inviting home-from-home less than a ten-minute drive from the heart of Cheltenham. If you’d prefer to stretch your legs, the Cotswolds is a short car ride away – we recommend taking a day trip to the pretty town of Bourton-on-the-Water. Back at the abode, a kitchen with plenty of prep space leads out to a large garden, perfect for barbecues in the summer. Should you visit during winter, the wood-burning stove in the snug is a welcome addition. Keen to make your stay extra special? Your host provides a range of optional extras, from cider tasting to yoga sessions.
