Located near the medieval town of Tewkesbury there is plenty on the doorstep to explore and the M5 is very close by with nearby access to the Cotswolds and Cheltenham. Enjoy the bustling market town of Tewkesbury by day, exquisite waterside walks and theatre shows. Take a leisurely meander in the market town, weave in and out of the Tudor buildings and visit farmers’ markets, antique shops and tea rooms. Pick up a small aperitif and step aboard a river cruise (season permitting) before catching a matinee at the Roses Theatre. A five to ten minute drive will bring you to a designer outlet in Tewkesbury, well worth a visit!
If historic splendour is on the agenda, Tewkesbury is home to a 12th-century abbey, adorned with one of the highest Norman towers in the country, and the largest medieval re-enactment festival in Europe in July. Just a short drive to the other side of town you will find Croft Farm, where you can spend the days on the lake, sailing, swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking. There is even a selection of peddalos for the younger ones. The café at Croft Farm is dog friendly too. Beyond Tewkesbury you will find the famous Cotswolds, and a day out in Chipping Campden is a must. Admire the streets of honey-hued, ‘chocolate box’ houses, boutique shops, pubs and restaurants, plus several castles nearby. There are plenty of on and off-road cycle routes and some family friendly trails to explore.
On days when you want to just be at one with nature, take a trip to the nearby nature reserve - educational and fun for all the family. You will find Regency Cheltenham within 10 miles, great to visit for one of their cultural festivals or a flutter at the races. Stunning Sudeley and Eastnor Castles, and Malvern are all within 15 miles. Whatever you choose to do, The Exchange will not disappoint. Shop, pub and restaurant 1 mile.

This house was incredible (spotlessly clean) a home away from home and I would have no hesitation in recommending it and would definitely love to return. It contained everything you would need. The outdoor seating areas were very comfortable. It is situated within a peaceful neighbourhood. Alexandra was always very prompt with her responses to questions via text. The hamper she left for us was very thoughtful and the bread was amazing 😋

Jarvea is a very well equipped cottage, with everything you need.There is a double kitchen with 2 ovens. And every thing you need. Also when you are with more people there are 2 bathrooms available.I can recommend a stay in this very nice cottage. The most popular places in the cotswolds can be reached within a half hoor tillen an hoor drive by car.

The house was warm and inviting on arrival. Plenty of space for our family gathering. It had everything we needed plus more. The welcome tray was a lovely surprise. A high chair and travel cot were provided which was very much appreciated. Plenty of toys for the little ones and lots of boardgames, books to read and the table football was a great addition!Would reccomend and would return.We were in our motorhome which we couldn't get on the drive so parked on the road which was fine. The other two cars had no trouble parking.
