Review of Tewkesbury

Nice hotel in the Cotswolds. Stars? Fore! (sic)

Advantages: Relaxing, comfortable hotel. Fantastic, I imagine, if you're a golfer.
Disadvantages: We had the balls to go without clubs. Big mistake!

It's ringing through my head - my mum always said that I should take up golf. Dress up in rather silly clothes, network with the bank manager, and spend a fortune in order to whack a defenceless ball around for 18 holes whilst walking a few miles at a sturdy pace. I used to enjoy the occasional game of "Pitch-and-Putt" with her and will never forget the call of "FORE!" as a ball came hurtling through the air and struck her firmly on the back of the head. OUCH! I wouln't have been too keen to have been on the receiving end of it but, twenty-five years on, she now seems fine, except from an insatiable desire to nag me about smoking. It's a mother's prerogative, I guess! The giggles have stopped. It did hurt, and as this is a hotel review, there should be no more sniggering. So this is a Hilton, and it's very much a golfing hotel ...

Review of Hilton Puckrup Hall, Tewkesbury

I lived worked and became pregnant there

Advantages: pretty town
Disadvantages: ?

tackle shop and an assortment of other useful shops. There was, still is I think an old bookshop stocking old books. I seem to remember a small shopping precinct with a Tesco?s. Several tea shops restaurants and pubs / hotels are in Tewkesbury so you wont go hungry or thirsty. There are many pretty walks along the river. Tewkesbury would be a good place to holiday it is nr Cheltenham and would be a good place to explore the Cotswolds and the Severn valley from. We lived in Tewkesbury just after we got married I working at a children?s home my husband doing his P.G.C.E. We lived in a flat in Mitton manor a beautiful building. We at that time were young poor and very much in love (still are really) My first baby Lucy was conceived in the manor sadly she only lived one day We left Tewkesbury just as my husband finished his ...
