- Where is your favourite pub or restaurant?
I adore The Close Hotel, whether it is for their fabulous breakfast or a glass of champagne in the garden on a summers day. - What do you love about the area?
The beauty – I have lived in many places but the sheer beauty of Gloucestershire and Wiltshire is something to behold. From rolling countryside to honey coloured stone houses, fabulous transport links and quirky events like the Wacky Races in Tetbury or the Boules tournament in the centre of Sheraton. - Where is the best place to relax in the area?
My favourite place to go is Westonbirt Arboretum, get back to nature, follow the trails, scuff the leaves in Autumn and breathe! - What do you think is the best view in the area ? The one that gets me every time is when the Church of St Mary’s is lit up in the evening on a misty night, something a little bit ethereal.
- How would you spend a ‘perfect day’ in the area ? I would begin with breakfast at The Close Hotel, after exploring the shops of Tetbury I would head to Malmesbury to wander along the old walls and the river walk, before picking up a picnic at The Summer Cafe and head into the beautiful Wiltshire villages of Sutton Benger, Grittleton and Burton. Pick up a few things from the Farm Shop in Burton before heading back to Sherston for dinner at The Rattlebone Inn. Right I’m off!

Where is your favourite pub or restaurant?

Also nearby is the Athelstan Museum, named after the first ‘King of all England’, which not only houses historical items and fascinating collections but also hosts music events and talks.
