Set in a reverse level style, the open plan living area can be found on the top floor, offering views of the beautifully restored Victorian warehouse and the Gloucester Sharpness Canal. Pop open a bottle of champagne and toast to a long-awaited getaway, as the chef of the group rustles up something tasty in the kitchen, appointed with a range of integrated appliances and glossy white units. Settle at the dining table as you discuss where to visit next – will it be one of the fascinating museums or the iconic Gloucester Cathedral? As you tire, head downstairs to find the bedrooms, offering two doubles, one with an en-suite shower room and Juliette balcony. The location of the apartment means exploring Gloucester couldn’t be easier; visit the gothic Cathedral, housing Edward II's tomb, the Museum Of Gloucester before spending time at the National Waterways Museum, which is an engaging canal and boat education centre. Refuel at an award-winning restaurant, with plenty of choice to cover a variety of tastes and budgets, along with many quirky bars and cafés. Out of the city there is so plenty to do, including the Cotswolds and the Forest of Dean providing scenic walking and cycling around picture-postcard villages. If exploration takes you further afield then the historic towns of Bath and Stratford-upon-Avon are within an hour’s drive and offer something for everyone. You may also fancy a day at Cheltenham Racecourse, home to the iconic Cheltenham Festival held in March each year. The Penthouse provides a superb base for touring this lovely part of England.
