Arcadia in Stone

Arcadia in Stone: Gloucestershire

This gorgeous apartment couldn't sum up Cheltenham any better. Set in a typical Regency terrace (Grade II listed, no less), it's in a great location on the outskirts of town with easy access to the independent eateries of Montpellier and a pub restaurant at the end of the road. Smart and comfortable, it's got all the character of a period home plus modern luxuries like en-suite bathrooms and stylish furniture. Open the shutters and the home floods with natural light. There's a sociable living area with a comfy L-shaped sofa and a dining table for four, and there's a fully kitted-out kitchen just off it – complete with retro serving hatch. Both bedrooms are bright and spacious, and we love the master bedroom's twin windows. You'll have your own entrance and out the back, there's even a shared garden area and somewhere to store your bike.

Home truths:
*There's off-road parking for the building but it's first come first served so a space can't be guaranteed – there's on-street parking available though too
*The garden and bike storage area are communal
*Both beds can be split to make twins if requested
*A travel cot and highchair are available – just ask the host
*Extra services from this host include an optional breakfast hamper, printer hire, Sky Sports and additional cleans – all available for a fee
*There's laptop-friendly workspace and pocket Wi-fi
*You'll have a private entrance
*The main bathroom has two doors – allowing it to be used from the hall or from the bedroom
