Blue Lias Cottage, Street, England

For most of the last week of our trip to England we rented a cottage in Street, near Glastonbury in Somerset. It was a great base of operations for taking in the West Country, and quite economical. The three of us split the equivalent of $500 for five days accommodation. Plus we each had our own room and could cook rather than eating out all the time and it was much more relaxing. I definitely recommend renting cottages.

This one was quite lovely, up on a hill above the town, and filled with memories.. Warm, welcoming, with a great spirit of place. We had the strangest game of Yahtzee one night while there. Every one of us got multiple yahtzees, each in turn, round and round—which if you've ever played the game is kind of unusual. We joked that the spirit of place just wanted everybody to be happy.

Whenever I think of this place, I'm happy. So the spirit of place did its work well.
