Further afield
Cheltenham is the perfect base to explore the Cotswolds. Its quintessentially English towns and villages are perfect to explore. On our last visit, Stef took us to Bourton on the Water, which is just under 16 miles away. It has been voted as one the prettiest villages in England. It is home to the Cotswold Motor Museum, Birdland, Cotswold Perfumery, The Cotswold Brewery and The Model Village. Shops and cafes line the pretty main street, with a stream running through. Bourton Vale Equestrian Centre allow you to explore on horseback, suitable for beginners and riders of all levels, and great if you've got horse mad little ones.
