Twyning & Tewkesbury

Twyning Village is a quiet Gloucestershire village with a long history - the settlement dates back to before medieval times. There are still a number of old wooden frame buildings in the village together with traditional red brick houses such as the Old Manor. Five minutes stroll from the holiday cottage, at the heart of the village, is the village green with The Village Inn at the far end. Just before The Green is Twyning Village Stores, which sells a good range of fresh, frozen and tinned produce including fresh bread and cakes, local meat, fruit and vegetables and wine and beers. Beyond the green the road leads down to the River Avon and a riverside pub. There's a lovely riverside walk along the Avon from the The Fleet Inn all the way into the centre of Tewkesbury.

There's a network of local footpaths right on the doorstep with great views across to Bredon Hill and the Cotswolds. Twyning and Bredon are separated by the River Avon so a ten minute drive through Tewkesbury takes you to Bredon and Bredon Hill - the climb is worth it for the great views of the Vale of Evesham and across the Severn Vale to the Malvern Hills. A leisure complex and spa, fishing, horse riding and an 18 hole golf course are all within walking distance of the holiday cottage.

Tewkesbury

Just 3 miles from the holiday cottage is the historic medieval town of Tewkesbury with the impressive Tewkesbury Abbey (the largest surviving Norman tower in the world) and network of 30 ancient alleyways. In 1471 The Battle of Tewkesbury was a major battle in the Wars of The Roses and the Tewkesbury Medieval Festival and battle re-enactment takes place every July. Nowadays visitors to Tewkesbury will find:

  1. Tewkesbury High Street - full of small specialist shops selling everything from exotic persian rugs to local Tewkesbury Mustard
  2. Excellent food shopping - Tewkesbury is lucky to still have traditional butchers, green grocers and bakers and a market on Thursdays and Saturdays. Tewkesbury delicatessen has a great tasting Tewkesbury cheddar, matured in it's own cellars.
  3. A wide choice of tea rooms, cafes, pubs and restaurants
  4. Historic medieval buildings and Tewkesbury Museum
  5. Tewkesbury Marina and Croft Farm Water sports Centre
  6. Tewkesbury Abbey - with concerts and performances at the Abbey
  7. Out Of The Hat - Tewkesbury's new Visitor Centre with an interactive guided tour of the history of Tewkesbury
  8. The Roses Theatre which has a varied programme of films, live music & stage productions
  9. Tewkesbury has a full programme of events throughout the year including Tewkesbury Food Festival in May, Awaken Your Senses art and culture week, Tewkesbury Medieval Festival with battle re-enactments, and the Christmas Festival of Lights.

The holiday cottages are ideally located for exploring local towns like medieval Tewkesbury, regency Cheltenham and Upton Upon Severn - famous for the Upton Jazz Festival . Drive along the country lanes and you'll find traditional fruit orchards, pretty Cotswold stone villages, traditional black and white timbered cottages and great scenery. With beautiful countryside and a network of local footpaths on the doorstep its also the perfect setting for enjoying the outdoors - a peaceful riverside walk along the Avon from Twyning to Tewkesbury or a walk up Bredon Hill or the Malvern Hills for great views across the Severn Vale. The area has a wealth of galleries, museums, craft centres, gardens, theatres and much more. The holiday cottage is ideal for the Malvern Showground, Cheltenham Races, The Tewkesbury Food Festival, Tewkesbury Medieval Festival and the Cheltenham Literature Festival. More Info.
