“Guests will enjoy the proximity to all that Cheltenham has to offer.” - VisitEngland Assessor
Cheltenham, Gloucestershire



Our Inspector's view
A late Georgian property, the Portland Guesthouse is within easy reach of Cheltenham's many attractions. In autumn, there's the famous Literature Festival, while spring brings the Cheltenham Festival at the racecourse. Inside the Portland you'll get a taste for Regency elegance, as all bedrooms and public spaces are styled to suit the building yet remain individual in design and decor.

About the area
Discover Gloucestershire
Gloucestershire is home to a variety of landscapes. The Cotswolds, a region of gentle hills, valleys and gem-like villages, roll through the county. To their west is the Severn Plain, watered by Britain’s longest river, and characterised by orchards and farms marked out by hedgerows that blaze with mayflower in the spring, and beyond the Severn are the Forest of Dean and the Wye Valley.
Throughout the county you are never far away from the past. Neolithic burial chambers are widespread, and so too are the remains of Roman villas, many of which retain the fine mosaic work produced by Cirencester workshops. There are several examples of Saxon building, while in the Stroud valleys abandoned mills and canals are the mark left by the Industrial Revolution. Gloucestershire has always been known for its abbeys, but most of them have disappeared or lie in ruins. However, few counties can equal the churches that remain here. These are many and diverse, from the ‘wool’ churches in Chipping Campden and Northleach, to the cathedral at Gloucester, the abbey church at Tewkesbury or remote St Mary’s, standing alone near Dymock.
