Spent 3 hours browsing there today. Driven past several times a week for the last year but didn’t recognise the name Malthouse and didn’t realise it was an excellent antiques emporium. So much to see and much of it reasonably priced. Well worth a visit. The cafe is excellent for a drink and a quick bite.

The 3 mile walk around this island in the Avon is picturesque as well as healthy. The end of the walk takes you over a small footbridge, which is handily placed for the large riverside beer garden of the Hop Pole Hotel!

Called in on a wet day in Tewkesbury. It’s an Aladdins cave of art, gifts and cards! We spent longer than we thought we would looking round , and spent more than we thought we would! Worth a look if you’re ever passing by.
