Our surprise Christmas gift from Lauren and James was dinner, bed and breakfast at a country house hotel by the river near Stratford on Avon.
So we are very happily installed in a lovely room on the second floor at Walton Hall - the room is fourth from the left in the above photo.
On arrival we went for a walk down the drive and to the river, which is overspilling its banks.
There was a large flock of very noisy Canada Geese on the water as well as a family of swans.
Inside the hotel is decorated for Christmas with an enormous tree in the reception hall.
On arrival we were told that there is a Boxing Day champagne reception and six course gala dinner followed by live jazz and dancing and that we will be attending!
(Pity we left the glad rags in the US!!)
What a lovely present. Hope you enjoyed the dinner etc.
