This week I am on a walking holiday in the Cotswolds with a group of friends. The Cotswolds is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) so plenty of beautiful countryside. Usually we meet up for a linear walk staying in different places each night. That puts a lot of pressure on you as you have to make sure you can do the mileage each day otherwise you won't have anywhere to stay that night. With increasing years we decided that this year we would stay in a central location and go out on different walks each day. This would give us much more flexibility.

It is a stunning venue. I think I might be looking for excuses to just sit in the garden admiring the view.
Brilliant, and look at the bright blue skies, with the warmth of the sun gently kissing you.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so inviting. I hope the weather stays fine for you and you enjoy some wonderful walks - how could you fail to, in the Cotswolds?
ReplyDeleteThe garden is lovely, looks like a nice Spring day, have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place to stay. Hope you have a good time.
ReplyDeleteSwitching to a base instead of pushing through point-to-point walks feels like a smart call, especially when the pressure to “make the next stop” starts taking the joy out of it. I’d probably end up doing the same as you, though, forgetting half the planned routes and just sitting there staring at that view with a cup of tea. This weekend we had a wonderful time by the Riverside.
ReplyDeleteWe really enjoyed our Cotswolds walk in 2014. It ranks as one of our top vacations. Remember, too meeting up with you in London!
ReplyDeleteThat looks a great place to stay.
ReplyDeleteI hope the weather stays dry (and sunny) for you.
Enjoy your walking.
All the best Jan
