Book Description
An English actress and comedy writer returns from Hollywood to her homeland to buy a cottage in the Cotswolds, the most beautiful part of Britain.
Her exciting search turns into a laugh-out-loud, good life, foodie,
meet the eccentric locals, cliff hanging, explore the idyllic Cotswolds
fun read as she finds the sense of community lacking in her urban
existence and decides "It doesn't get much better than this!"
After
British-born, comedy actress Diz White found herself craving Yorkshire
Pudding at every meal she knew her roots were pulling her back from Hollywood to her homeland.
It was time to buy a Cotswolds Cottage!
Her roller-coaster, search doubles as a travel-tour (travel guide included at the end of this memoir) that takes in every delight of the Cotswolds: historic sites, hog roasts, hiking the Cotswolds Way and pub walks with her husband, sometimes bagging the walk in favor of a slightly boozy lunch. There were highs, heartbreaks and cliff-hangers as she scrambled between Hollywood and the Cotswolds, taking every wacky showbiz job offered, and hunting for a cottage bargain. On her journey she was charged by a bull named Chasin’ Mason, auditioned for the hind end of a horse and was trampled by thirty children while wearing a bear suit. But the fondness she developed for this region and its vivid inhabitants gave her a feeling of community missing from her busy urban existence. Will this author’s dream become a reality? Find out in this witty love note to the Cotswolds.
