Gloucestershire Holiday Cottages and Cotswold Holiday Homes

Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds are a sought after location for rest and relaxation as well as hiking, walking and mountain biking. The area encompasses Gloucester, Cheltenham and Cirencester as well as a wealth of hills and picturesque countryside which many people have made their home. The Cotswold hills embrace wonderful stone cottages, churches and country pubs straight out of lifestyle magazines and TV programmes. Cheltenham is well known for its regency terraces and a rich heritage of Roman art whereas Tewkesbury is a typical quaint Medieval town with a strong Norman Abbey.

We recommend taking a holiday or break in this area and renting a Gloucestershire Holiday Cottage or Cotswold Holiday Home for your stay in a typically English environment. Cheltenham is an elegant place that reached notoriety in the 18th century when High Society flocked here for the spa baths which originate from Roman times. Gloucester in contrast has been largely modernized but has still played a pivotal role in the history of England. It was in this very town that the Domesday Book of 1086 was constructed by order of William the Conqueror who wanted a full survey of all his lands. This city was also favored by the Norman monarchs.

Cirencester is also a place to put on the tour agenda as it is known as the capital of the Cotswolds. It is market town with an open market every Monday and Friday in the area under the tower of the Church of St John the Baptist. The Corinium Museum features excavated objects presented as a view into ancient Roman life. Nevertheless the real beauty of the area is the Cotswold hills that can be explored by car, bike or simply on foot. For a lovely relaxing and interesting holiday in the Heart of England why not stay in a Cotswold Holiday Cottage or Gloucestershire Holiday Home ?
