Parks and Gardens
Cheltenham has been a Britain in Bloom winner on many occasions and has also won the Prix European d'Excellence. As long ago as 1901 it was said "Whether you look at it as one great garden, or a place where a garden is attached to almost every house, Cheltenham is the garden town of England".
The tree-lined Promenade with its colourful Long Gardens is one of the finest boulevards in the country and, in summer, the floral displays in the parks and gardens, together with colourful hanging baskets along many of the historic terraces, create a lively, continental atmosphere.
