Annabel chose Coombe End for its beautiful gardens and traditional, classic interiors.
Coombe End is located 6 miles from Cheltenham and Cirencester, between the villages of Elkstone and Winstone. The house is perfectly placed for enjoying local events such as the Cheltenham Races and the Badminton Horse Trials.
Not only famous for the Gold Cup, Cheltenham, which used to be a spa town, is also known for its Regency buildings, shopping, and fine art at The Wilson museum. Definitely worth a visit.
The largest town in the Cotswolds District, Cirencester is another lovely place to visit. Notable attractions include the Corinthian Museum, with its huge collection of Roman relics, the Church of St John The Baptist which dates back to the 12th century, and its various lush green parks.
