Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire

Gliding peacefully across beautiful countryside early on a summer morning, or in the evening is an unforgettable experience. Unlike other aircraft, you can watch the hot air balloon being assembled before your eyes - just like a giant tent ! Then climb aboard and admire the view from the basket - no doors closed, or windows to sit behind, it's all out in the fresh air. Fantastic !

The historical town of Tewkesbury lies close to the meeting of the Rivers Severn and Avon but mainly along the eastern banks of the River Avon whose tributaries border the town and divide it from Newtown and Walton Cardiff. Having already successfully maintained its abbey buildings, medieval character, timber-framed buildings and many sites of historical interest it is increasingly known as a conservation area. The A38 passes through the town from junction 1 of the M50 to Gloucester in the south. Access from the M5 motorway at junction 9 is within 2 miles to the east of the town centre. There are several camping, golf courses and caravan sites to the north and south of this attractive area.
