Daughter offered to Granny sit last week so we took her up on it and escaped. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't actually doing us any favours, cold wet rain most of the time, so we went here. I must admit the interior of the house wasn't a total success with us, there's so much to see and even with timed entry it was crowded and hot - so a bit claustrophobic and difficult to concentrate. Outside, however, is lovely, only marred by the rotten weather on the day we went.
I'm afraid I rushed out without the decent camera so these are off my phone. The lovely tones of the Cotswold stone aren't brought out so well by the grey day but it would spectacular in the sunshine. There were lots of nice things in the shop, but H wasn't in browsing mood so I didn't spend anything!
The Spring garden show is on at the Three Counties showground at the moment but I can't go this year - can see the carpark which is absolutely packed from first thing. There's a Quilt show on Thursday until Sunday so I might manage that as a friend is coming up from Cardiff - depends how other things pan out this week. Lots of things going on here but not for blogging about. We struggle on ......
