Where to stay in Charlton Park

Where the beds are, and what that means for the visit.

Beds belong to Cheltenham. Charlton Park is a residential quarter with private addresses, so the booking is made in the town and the district becomes the green half of a day spent between the College Ground and the park itself. Cricket sets the calendar.

You want this side of Cheltenham when the East Gloucestershire Cricket Club Ground or the Church of the Holy Apostles is what the visit is built around.

About Charlton Park

What are the main landmarks in Charlton Park?

Two grounds and a park. The East Gloucestershire Cricket Club Ground and the College Ground give the district more open turf than most of the town's quarters, and Charlton Park itself adds a third green space to the same short list. Churches follow.

The Church of the Holy Apostles, the Church of St Mary and Emmanuel Church carry the dedications, while the South African War Memorial at the entrance to Cheltenham College is the one monument entered against the district's name.

What is the history of Charlton Park?

Between the College Ground and the Church of St Mary, no entry for Charlton Park carries a foundation year. Its record is a list of houses instead, Charlton House, Boyne House, Queens House, Kings House and The Court House among them, each entered without a date that would place it. Parish Hall is the civic entry.

Whatever the sequence, the district's past reads through Sandford Park House, Wraxall House and Bafford House rather than through any document, and Cheltenham holds whatever archive would settle it.

Where is Charlton Park?

Inside Cheltenham the district spreads around Charlton Park itself, with Sandford Park House, Bridge House and the Church of St Mary on the streets that frame it.
