Settling in at the Edge of the Cotswolds

My husband and I just had a little weekend getaway in the Cotswolds.  The tiny villages feel so warm and inviting.  They are all walkable little towns surrounded by rolling hills of sheep and bright green grass.  It seems like everyone is decked out in a quilted jacket and their favorite pair of boots, ready to head out on the footpaths through the fields.

The pace of life is leisurely, and the people are unapologetic about it.  What a perfect attitude for sinking into the remains of winter.  Just grab a cup of hot cocoa, curl up in a warm blanket next to the fire, and read a book that's been on your list for quite some time.  This is the right way to enjoy the season and not worry about rushing toward Spring.
