THE FIELD KITCHEN IN LOWER SLAUGHTER |
We had the pleasure of enjoying the alfresco dining concept at The Slaughters Country Inn in Lower Slaughter. Their new edition to the culinary offering is The Field Kitchen, a cute horse box on the lawn in the garden with a Gozney to make delicious flatbreads and bagels.
The Slaughters Country Inn has always been a destination for those seeking a taste of rural luxury, and The Field Kitchen is no exception. |

A PERFECT PAMPER DAY AT TEWKESBURY PARK |
On the last Saturday in October, as the sun shone unexpectedly bright on a crisp Autumn day, we set out for what was going to be a wonderful day.
Surprisingly, it was the outdoor facilities that truly stole the show on this day in late October. The sun loungers, which you would not have expected to be in use this late in the year, were bathed in warm sunshine as we ventured outside. It was unseasonably warm and just wonderful. |
