The Regency town of Cheltenham is worth a visit for many reasons. The town's architecture and attractive parklands are two good examples. Cheltenham has worked hard to maintain its reputation for the quality and sheer brilliance of its floral displays which can be seen in many locations and are particularly prominent along the promenade.

Cheltenham is an old established town dating back to Saxon times. It is the most complete Regency town in England. A visit to Pitville Park and the Pitville Pump Room soon reveal its history as a Spa town. King George III visited Cheltenham in 1788 and set the trend for the drinking of the healthy water with its supposed healing qualities.

Cheltenham is excellent for shopping. The town centre features all the modern shops and conveniences you would expect and a vibrant and busy shopping arcade. The Montpellier area of town (not far from the Queen's Hotel) is a haven for the more discerning shoppers who might be looking for their next antique acquisition.

The restaurants and facilities at Cheltenham are excellent. The town has its own very well known racecourse, an impressive Town Hall and an abundance of attractions and places to visit literally on its doorstep. Cheltenham is the gateway to the Cotswolds.
