Tivoli which is commonly referred to as Tivoli Road, was originally owned by the Earl of Essex, and has changed ownership many times throughout its history. It is now a small region of independent shops, easily accessible to both Bath Road and The Suffolks, and is a great little jewel in Cheltenham's crown.

In terms of shopping, Tivoli features a number of great independent retailers; some practical for the community including a butcher, a dry cleaner and a hardware store, and some great for all including the Maison Chaplais - a tasty delicatessen and shop, Tivoli Wines, whose team are a font of wine knowledge and of course traditional local pubs such as The Tivoli, The Jolly Brewmaster and The Royal Union, all of which have a great selection of craft ales on tap.

If you can stop for lunch or a drink, there is a small bay of free parking on the road and it is never normally a problem to grab a space.
