The historic rural county of Gloucestershire boasts some of the largest Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the country, including the Cotswolds, the Severn Vale and the Royal Forrest of Dean. The city of Gloucester, located to the west of the M5, mixes historic docklands and a magnificent Norman cathedral with all the shops, bars and restaurants you would expect from a modern city. The beautiful spa-town of Cheltenham, to the east of the M5 and connected to Gloucester by the A40, annually plays host to world-renowned festivals of music, literature, science and jazz.
