London Amateur Piano Meetup #79

♨️ Барбекю в Котсуолде

Местечко **Cotswold** знаменито средневековыми деревушками, сказочными домиками, красивейшими садами, бескрайними лугами, постройками трехсотлетней давности – все это привлекает желающих посмотреть на «старую добрую Англию» из романов и кино. Этот район, площадь которого составляет 970 квадратных миль, также именуют Котсуолдскими холмами или Котсуолдской заповедной зоной, растянувшейся между четырьмя известными городами — Оксфордом, Глостером, Батом и Стратфордом-на-Эйвоне. 🏡 **[Bourton-on-the-Water](http://www.bourtoninfo.com/)**[ ](http://www.bourtoninfo.com/)или «Котсуолдская Венеция» – средневековая деревушка, изрезанная каналами, над которыми выгибаются каменные мостики. Уже 70 лет деревушка славится футбольными матчами, которые разыгрываются прямо в реке Windrush. Среди достопримечательностей Bourton-on-the-Water выделяются миниатюрная модель деревни и музей автомобилестроения, а также вольер с экзотическими птицами. Сегодня Гулливером может стать любой желающий – для этого достаточно приехать в эту английскую деревушку, где создана точная копия поселения в масштабе 1:9. **🏡 [Cotswolds Distillery](https://www.cotswoldsdistillery.com/)** – один из самых самых маленьких, но, возможно, самых красивых ликероводочных заводов Англии. Здесь производят лучшие ремесленные виски, джин и ликер по традиционным технологиям, а магазины и дегустационные залы больше напоминают уютный коттедж, где можно расположиться у дровяной печи и познакомиться с выдающимися крепкими напитками. Известный художник и поэт Уильям Моррис назвал **[Bibury](https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/bibury)** «самой красивой деревней Англии». Съемки эпизодов «Дневник Бриджит Джонс», «Звездная пыль» и нескольких историй о мисс Марпл по рассказам Агаты Кристи проходили именно здесь, в Bibury. Каждый дом в этой знаменитой деревушке можно назвать раритетом. Время здесь как будто остановилось и не властно над этим местом, а в воздухе витает ощущение спокойствия и уединения вдали от суеты современных мегаполисов. Неисправимые романтики со всего мира приезжают в Bibury, чтобы насладиться первозданной красотой сельской Англии, тишиной и умиротворением, пройтись по узким улочкам «самой английской деревни», с живописного пешеходного моста через Колн полюбоваться лебедиными парами, плавающими в реке, посетить ресторанчики и антикварные лавки, расположенные в старинных особняках. Прогулка по заповедной зоне позволит немного отдохнуть от городских будней, а барбекю на открытом огне станет чудесным завершением нашей программы. 📝План поездки: 📍**08:45** Встреча у отеля **[Hotel Novotel London West](https://goo.gl/maps/isJaR8654Y62)**, 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (рядом с Hammersmith Station) 📍11:00 – 13:00 «Котсуолдская Венеция» [Bourton-on-the-Water](http://www.bourtoninfo.com/): [Деревня лилипутов](https://www.theoldnewinn.co.uk/model-village/) (от £3.50), [Мир Птиц](https://www.birdland.co.uk/) (от £8.95), [Mузей Машин](https://www.cotswoldmotoringmuseum.co.uk/) (от £6.50), ликероводочный завод [Cotswolds Distillery](https://www.cotswoldsdistillery.com/) 📍13:30 – 14:30 Ловим / покупаем рыбу на ферме форели в деревне [Bibury](https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/bibury) (£9) 📍14:30 – 15:30 [Рыбное BBQ](https://www.biburytroutfarm.co.uk/plan-your-visit/bbqs/) (барбекю), жарим пойманную или купленную форель 📍16:00 – 16:45 Деревня Bibury: Arlington Row and St Mary’s Church 📍16:45 Отправление 📍19:15 London, Hammersmith 👣Продолжительность путешествия зависит от погодных условий и дорожных пробок. ✅ Включено в стоимость: ⚜️Аренда мангала для BBQ под деревянным газебо ⚜️Аудиогид на русском ⚜️Тур-менеджер, говорящий на русском и английском языках ⚜️Транспорт, организация мероприятия ⚜️Профессиональный водитель с курсами IAM/RoSPA ⚜️Администрация и помощь во время путешествия ⚜️НДС и все налоги, комиссия платежной системы (карта/банк/PayPal) ❌Не включено: ❌Входные билеты на ферму форели (£9) ❌Альтернативное питание во время путешествия ❌Рыба, что мы поймаем в местной ферме ❌Трансфер в место встречи и после завершения поездки ❌Остановки автобуса для посадки/высадки пассажиров по пути следования ❌[Страховка](https://www.coverwise.co.uk/) в случае травм, потери багажа и личных вещей, отмены тура в последнюю минуту ❌[Evebus Club](https://evebus.com/ru/evebus-club/) – переносы броней без потерь, [выбор посадочного](https://evebus.com/ru/seating-plan) места ❌Экскурсовод: £20 с человека при условии набора группы от 6-ти участников 🎒Что взять с собой: ☑️Воду/еду по желанию ☑️Фотокамеру и зарядку для телефона ☑️Хорошее настроение 🙂 ✳️Обо всем остальном мы позаботимся.

This 20 km tough hike starts at Kew gardens station and follows the beautiful Thames Path through leafy parks, riverside pubs, and iconic London neighbourhoods, finishing at Westminster.
