Due to a late cancellation, all three cottages are now available for the weekend of December 11th - 14th at a 20% discount.

This is an ideal time to get away for a quiet few days before the really busy Christmas season starts in earnest. Or, alternatively, take a weekend to do some last minute shopping in one of our local individual shops .

There’s  Butler and Sweatman , retailers of fine contemporary and traditional objects for the home,  http://www.butlerandsweatman.co.uk/,

or Emerald and Greene, for gifts, from candles contained in vintage tea cups to lovely toiletries.

There’s Ceci Paolo,    http://www.cecipaolo.com/ with a fantastic deli and kitchen shop

and John Nash, http://www.johnnash.co.uk/ for antiques and interiors.

The Hop Pocket, http://www.thehoppocket.com/ a six minute drive away, is a small “shopping village”, including an award-winning Hop Pocket Wine Company. http://www.hoppocketwine.co.uk/ offering the best wines, beers, ciders and spirits from the three counties of Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire.

If you are interested in booking any of the cottages, please e-mail me at suefurnival@googlemail.com and mention this blog.
