Naunton
Naunton sits within one of Cheltenham's most education-rich corners, with Naunton Park Primary serving the immediate area and an outstanding array of nearby schools, including Cheltenham College, Cheltenham Ladies' College and the High School Leckhampton, making this a magnet for families. Day-to-day life is well supported too, with plenty of cafés, restaurants and shops close by, strong healthcare provision across GPs, dentists and hospitals, and air quality rated excellent at 98.1 out of 100. Crime rates are falling year on year, adding to the sense of a neighbourhood that's heading in the right direction.
Housing here carries a premium reflecting the strong schools and amenities, with prices and rents running above many surrounding Cheltenham neighbourhoods. That said, there's real variety close by: St Paul's offers some of the area's most affordable terraces and flats, while Lansdown and Park command higher prices for detached and semi-detached homes. Across the board, properties range widely in price and style, so buyers have options whether they're after a flat or a substantial family house.
Transport is a consistent theme across these neighbourhoods, relying mainly on cars and buses rather than extensive local infrastructure, though Lansdown benefits from both a bus station and nearby railway access. A notable number of residents, often close to half, work from home, pointing to a settled, professional population that values quality of life over commuting convenience. Combined with mild weather, good road links via the A40, and easy access to central Cheltenham's wider shops and services, Naunton suits families and professionals looking for a well-connected, well-schooled base with a strong sense of community.
