The local area guide to living in Cheltenham

The beautiful spa town and borough of Cheltenham lies at the edge of England’s beautiful, beloved Cotswolds and has been famed since the 18th century for its rejuvenating mineral springs. Their discovery in 1716 gave Cheltenham its spa town status, which initiated its popularity as a holiday getaway for wealthy English families of the time, this fashionable renown was firmly secured by a visit from the Royals in 1788. Its reputation only further increased with the opening of a racecourse in the 19th century. Today, the Cheltenham racecourse attracts thousands to the lovely spa town, with popularity peaking every March, during the Cheltenham Festival.

It is worth being aware that due to the River Chelt running beneath and through the town, flooding can sometimes be caused. Around 800 properties are in flood risk zones, but the town has received over £20 million in flood alleviation funding in the past few years.
