Sitting between Gloucester and Cheltenham, this well-equipped airport is the county's largest general aviation airfield, with a busy, professional atmosphere. An on-site aviation museum is a highlight — but note it sits on the opposite side of the airfield from the café and ATC, so tell tower when you arrive if you'd like to visit and they'll direct you to the nearest parking. Glider and hang glider activity takes place along the Cotswold hills to the east and south, so keep a good lookout on approach. Cheltenham's Regency architecture, racecourse, and the highly-rated Beefy Boys burger restaurant are all within easy reach.
