Leisure Breaks
Located right in the heart of the city centre within walking distance of all the shops, bars and central attractions and if that does not keep you busy enough it’s a short drive to Cheltenham and the Malverns. For sport there is nowhere better, choose from cricket, rugby, racing and football and if it’s culture you need there is the Cathedral, Elgar’s birthplace and a host of historic houses nearby.
