Where is your favourite pub or restaurant?
I adore The Close Hotel, whether it is for their fabulous breakfast or a glass of champagne in the garden on a summers day.
What do you love about the area?

Where is the best place to relax in the area?
My favourite place to go is Westonbirt Arboretum, get back to nature, follow the trails, scuff the leaves in Autumn and breathe!
