Moreton-in Marsh, Cotswolds

Catching a train from London Paddington, we headed off to Moreton in Marsh in the Cotswolds on Friday (15 February 2008). Charlie, ex-war veteran and proprietor of the B&B (snoozeandsizzle.com, formally known as Warwick House B&B) picked us up from the train station, cautioning me to look out for the 'old, battered blue Volvo as the new ones are taxis'. En route the 5 minutes to the B&B he gave us a whistle stop town orientation. All two main roads could be missed if you blink and with a population of 3500 inhabitants, it's entirely possible. Having chosen one of the coldest weekends in the English winter, we spent the weekend walking around town, popping into tea shops, lounging over long, lazy lunches and huddling up indoors from the cold.
