Cheltenham

Right now roughly 9p per litre separates the cheapest unleaded from the dearest locally. Supermarket forecourts from Sainsburys and Asda usually anchor the bottom of the local range.

3 of the 19 local forecourts are supermarket-run, and the rest split between branded and independent operators. Sainsburys around Priors Road has been setting the cheapest unleaded price locally of late.

Several of the busier sites sit along Hatherley Lane and Princess Elizabeth Way, so you can check them against each other without leaving your usual route. The local unleaded average sits well below the South West England number, so filling up locally usually beats waiting for somewhere else in the region.

For diesel, expect an average of roughly 163p per litre locally. Everything within about 8 km of the centre is included, so edge-of-town and retail park sites appear alongside the central forecourts.

The cheapest station in Cheltenham is not fixed; the low spot moves between forecourts through the week, so the current ordering matters more than habit. The table below carries the exact live figures per station, and alerts can flag a drop at the forecourts you actually use.
