The hotel is 6 km from Cheltenham's bus and railway stations and 6.4 km from the historic spa town. Greene King Inns offers free parking and dog-friendly accommodations.

Pros

The hilltop location provides exceptional views across five counties.

The seasonal menu includes traditional British dishes and a selection of real ales and wines.

Dog-friendly accommodations are available with prior booking.

Proximity to Cheltenham and outdoor activities like hiking and golf.
