ON OUR DOORSTEP...

Visit … ‘Snowshill Manor (nationaltrust.org.uk) to see the eclectic collection of ephemera belonging to the late Charles Wade, architect and artist. The Arts and Crafts courtyard gardens are beautiful too.’ Shop at … ‘Burford Garden Company (burford.co.uk) is a destination store for plants, home décor and food. You usually find something you didn’t know you needed. Last year I bought an apple picker that works brilliantly.’

Go for a meal at… ‘The Feathered Nest (thefeatherednestinn. co.uk), which is great for special occasions. The views are stunning. We also love The Milton Hare (themiltonhare.co.uk), which is excellent for fish dishes.’
