It is a very special village, with a character of its own, but with a tradition and feel that's purely Cotswolds. Many people return to Bibury, time and time again, breathing in the beauty and the tranquility of the river meandering through the Coln Valley, with the enchanting Cotswold stone cottages and old Mills. If you come to Bibury early in the morning, as the mist rolls gently back from the hills surrounding the village, you will find a row of traditional Cotswold cottages, well known throughout England, and indeed the world. This row of weavers' cottages as shown on the front cover is known as Arlington Row, and is perhaps one of the most photographed places in the Cotswolds

After British-born, comedy actress Diz White found herself craving Yorkshire Pudding at every meal she knew her roots were pulling her back from America to her homeland. It was time to buy a Cotswolds Cottage! Her roller-coaster search doubles as a travel-tour that takes in every delight of the Cotswolds: historic sites, hog roasts, hiking the Cotswold Way and pub walks with her husband, often bagging the walk in favour of a slightly boozy lunch.There were highs, heartbreaks and cliff-hangers as she was charged by a bull named Chasin' Mason, auditioned for the hind end of a horse and was trampled by thirty children while wearing a bear suit, but the fondness she developed for this region and its vivid inhabitants gave her a feeling of community missing from her busy urban existence. Will this author's dream cottage become a reality? Find out in this witty love note to the Cotswolds. This book does double-duty as a travel tour of the Cotswolds and features a valuable VISITOR'S GUIDE with GPS and Sat Nav info, a MAP and over a dozen especially commissioned PHOTOGRAPHS.
