Where is your favourite pub or restaurant? I’d have to say Gin & Juice on the Promenade, it’s got a great relaxed vibe and atmosphere. If I’m after something a bit fancier, The Ivy in Montpellier is lovely setting for a bite to eat.
What do you love about the area? Cheltenham’s got this perfect blend of town and country. You’ve got beautiful architecture and a lively calendar of festivals but at the same time, you’re only ever a few minutes from green space or the Cotswold hills.
Where is the best place to relax in the area? Pittville Park is ideal for a lazy afternoon. It’s peaceful but still close to town, so it’s easy to pop over for a stroll.
What do you think is the best view in the area? You can’t beat the view from the top of Cleeve Hill. It’s the highest point in the Cotswolds and on a clear day you can see right across to the Malverns and even the Welsh mountains in the distance. It’s especially lovely around sunset.
How would you spend a ‘perfect day’ in the area? I would head to Lilley Brook or Cotswold Hills Golf Club for a round of golf as both have stunning views. After that, lunch at The Daffodil and then into the evening, I’d unwind with a couple of gin and tonics at Gin & Juice, a perfect way to end the day.
