Birdlip, Glos and the Royal George Hotel

We've been back for a few days to Birdlip, Gloucestershire and stayed again at The Royal George Hotel.  

They welcome dogs so, of course, William goes along with us and he even remembered the room we had stayed in before, which we got again.     I did sketches, which I'll show you in a minute, but first some pics...starting with the view from our room.  We had our own little patio area, ideal for getting straight out and walking William.


 then off to the viewpoint


~ Barrow Wake, Viewpoint ~
This viewpoint shows how high Birdlip is - I reckon it must be two coats colder up here - see the frost!






The Cotswold's has so many cute village and towns, I'll do more photos of them next visit




and Mr. Hopeful at breakfast!

with so many places to visit in the area, it was difficult to decide
where to start. Worcester got the highest vote!






Clear skies, but bitter cold ~ I still sat and sketched though...



Another day with went to Evesham...where I seemed to be obsessed with sketching from a car park roof...



talking of cars....



near Gloucester ~ an out of town shopping complex...


Sketching in the Hotel bar....



sketched this one from the restaurant area ~ one window in particular where I could just see the tops of buildings opposite...


Then sketched in Taunton on the way home...
