Pendennis is situated along a lightly used lane, less than a minute walk from Cleeve Hill, approximately 4 miles north of Cheltenham enjoying spectacular views over the Severn Vale. Cleeve Hill is the highest point of the Cotswolds hill range and a site of Special Scientific Interest recognised for its geology, habitats, botany and monuments. The area provides great opportunities for outdoor pursuits and a long established golf club at the top of the hill, under new management is transformed and a hive for walkers with a super coffee shop and bar. A walk along The Common provides a memorable experience of the original wold with far reaching views towards Winchcombe, The Malverns and Wales. The setting therefore enjoys the best of both worlds being situated in a semi-rural position, yet only a few minutes’ drive from Cheltenham and just 3 miles from the historic market town of Winchcombe. Pendennis is a short walk to The Rising Sun or The Apple Tree in Woodmancote. Cheltenham is a superb place for shopping with an abundance of main high street shops, specialist boutiques, cafés and restaurants. Education is very well catered for and there are excellent sporting facilities in and around the town. Host to annual cultural festivals including music, literature and jazz, the town is equally famous for horse racing and the annual Gold Cup.
