Amazing location, ideal for a relaxing break in the Cotswolds. Family house (not a holiday chalet) in the middle of Cleeve Common, with gardens and fantastic views over historic, Regency Cheltenham Spa.
Sleeps 7 people easily in 3 double bedrooms and one single. (Additional adults and children may be accommodated by arrangement - please ask). Recently refurbished and well maintained; pets welcome too!
The Cotswold Way passes across Cleeve Common which offers excellent walking, mountain-biking, horse riding or golfing. Cheltenham town centre is 12 minutes by car from the house. Bus service as well as hotels and restaurants/bars are a short walk/drive across the common.
Cleeve Hill makes a perfect base for a visit to a wide range of places – anywhere in the Cotswolds such as Cirencester, Stow on the Wold or Bourton on the Water as well as day trips to Oxford, Stratford on Avon, Bristol, Worcester or Birmingham (all of which are about an hour away using the M5 motorway or Wales, about 1 1/2 hours).
