Alterations in Cheltenham
The Festival at Prestbury Park each March is the fixed point of Cheltenham’s year, with jump racing through the winter around it. Tweed jackets, overcoats and suits all come out for the races.
Cotswold weddings, from village churches to barns and country houses, keep the summer just as busy.
Fittings can be at home or in a hotel. Express is not currently offered in Cheltenham, so allow standard turnaround before Festival week.
