As a birthday treat for a close friend we joined them at a fancy hotel in the Cotswolds one weekend not too long ago. The Lygon Arms in Broadway is a very fine establishment with a history that goes back to King Charles 1st time and is frequented by the rich and famous alike. It was not cheap but we certainly made the most of the luxuries and indulged ourselves greatly. Sue got an extra treat as she mistakenly went into the wrong changing rooms after her glasses fogged up in the sauna, and our friends only realised that the complimentary bottle of champagne was for a different room after we had drunk it.
The area was in full Christmas spirit with the town and others having their festive late night markets with mulled wine, horse drawn carriages and other treats, also in town was a shop entirely dedicated to Christmas decorations. We also sampled spirits of another kind in the local hostelries as we fortified ourselves against the cold air as we walked around.
