Area Information

There are many interesting days out to be had in this charming town, with many quaint alleyways, mostly originating from the 17th century. Guided walks can be had around the Civil War Battle Trail, as Tewkesbury was the setting for the last important Battle of the Roses. Alternatively, the magnificent Norman Abbey, idyllically situated in delightful grounds with rolling fields beyond, is well worth a visit. Boat trips, river cruises and riverbank walkways are all easily found. Tewkesbury is situated only 14.5 km (9 miles) from the delightful town of Cheltenham with its elegant shopping arcades and gracious terrace houses. Enjoy the International Festival of Music in July and a Jazz Festival in April, as well as superb parks and gardens, street side cafes, stylish shopping, museums, galleries and of course the racecourse.
