Frogfurlong Cottage Guest House is situated in the green Belt area within the triangle formed by Cheltenham, Gloucester and Tewkesbury. The cottage itself is what remains of 5 C18th cottages, 3 of which were knocked down and the remaining 2 extended and modernised into the house, pretty much as it is now.

The cottage stands well back from the little Frogfurlong Lane and is surrounded on all sides by fields. When they were first built, the cottages were rented out from the main owner; Thomas Pear to his various brothers and sisters for a ‘peppercorn rent’ As to the name, ‘Frogfurlong’ - no-one knows, there are no documents that give any explanation as to what it means.

It gives considerable enjoyment to the postman however as we often get mail addressed to “Frog Fell on Cottage” and “Frog Fellow Cottage” also, people seem to be unable to resist putting pictures of frogs on envelopes.
