Pittville Pump Room

The jewel of Cheltenham’s Regency architecture, the Pump Room is the grandest survival of the town’s many spa buildings. Overlooking the sweeping lawns and ornamental lakes of Pittville Park it is the perfect place to step back in time: imagine the swirling dancers in the ballroom, hear the music playing in the bandstand and remember, when you taste the waters, that this was the reason for it all - an unpleasant tasting liquid that supposedly had the power to cure all ills! In the grounds there is a children’s menagerie and also a café which serves light refreshments during summer months (on Central Cross Drive).
