April in the Cotswolds
The Cotswolds in April was fantastic! We have just spent a week here and had a great time. The weather was fine, we didn't even have a drop of rain. We stayed in a lovely cottage that had just been refurbished, part of a block of four - Railway Cottages & Apartments at Moreton-in-the-Marsh, have a look at their website for more information: http://www.cotswoldsholidaysandlets.com/ . The village is very nice with good shops & eateries and the biggest market in the Cotswolds every Tuesday. Get some of the olives, sun-dried tomatoes & cashew nuts! Yummy!
