Our Flat in Cheltenham


Cheltenham is a "Regency" style town, which means, among other things, that many of the buildings look like this. Relative to the rest of the U.K., Cheltenham is fairly young. Our building, pictured above is only about 200 years old. Our flat has the original woodwork, shutters, fire place and doors but as is evident in the rest of the photos, everything else has been redone and modernized.

This is the view from the kitchen looking out into the lounging area of the room.
This is one of two bed rooms each with a bath. It was our original room but then rumors of a very comfortable bed in the other room started to spread, so after Grandy and Grandpa left- we moved!



Another view of the sitting area- this shows the windows. The windows are close to 12 feet tall, there are three of them that open into the main room. The windows look out over gardens and large trees create a natural screen from the busy road.
This shows the kitchen fairly well, it is small but nice and we really have everything we need. The refrigerator is in the center island and next to it is the freezer. They are both slightly larger than dorm room size. Through the door at the right of the photo is a foyer, a hall and the entrance to the two bedrooms.
We are going to go around town and take pictures of the places we frequent and post them eventually.
