Directions to Cheltenham Spa Railway Station?


Hi,
Can someone please give me accurate directions from Hatherley Road to Cheltenham Spa Railway Station in Glos? I will be going on foot so please bear this in mind. How long will it take?
Thanks!

Hatherley Road is a long road. Have a look at this map: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?ie=UTF8&ll=51.895748,-2.116799&spn=0.018723,0.037422&z=15
Hatherley Road is just below the centre of the map. From one end, the walk would be 10 minutes. From the other end, it would be 30 minutes.

Are there any dress codes to worry about?

There is some information about Cheltenham here

Hope this helps :}

I get a warm fuzzy feeling when visiting the above and am looking for suggestions of similar places that I might like icon smile What other elegant towns/cities are there in the UK that are comparable to Cheltenham, York and Chester?
Thanks, some excellent suggestions so far.

I am also interested in suggestions for towns as well as cities. Harrogate is another favourite of mine.

I get that feeling everytime I go to:

Bath
Cambridge
Carlisle
Durham
Exeter
Lincoln
Oxford
Stratford-upon-Avon
Windsor
and as you have mentioned, York.

All of these cities I have visited and each time I visit them I end up not wanting to leave.

I live in America and want to send my sister in Cheltenham, England a nice spa gift voucher for her Birthday. Can anyone recommend a good place in Cheltenham where I can purchase a gift voucher online for her?
