OS grid ref:SO 90 22
Dialling code: 01242 (Cheltenham)

Golden Valley sits on the outskirts of Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire, England, occupying low-lying farmland and meadowland close to the River Severn floodplain. The area is valued for its open, pastoral character and wetland habitats, with winding lanes and footpaths that link the valley to nearby towns and popular walking routes toward Gloucester and Cheltenham.

Historically agricultural, Golden Valley has a rural feel but supports a mix of farming, small local businesses and residents who commute into the nearby urban centres; it also feels the influence of Tewkesbury's rich medieval heritage, including Tewkesbury Abbey. The community is small and locally engaged, with an emphasis on conservation and flood awareness given the valley’s proximity to the rivers.
