The ultimate laughoutloud, good life, househunting, foodie, traveltour, meet the eccentric locals, rollercoaster cliff hanger, fun memoir. A love note to the Cotswolds, one of the most beautiful regions of England.After Britishborn, 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 rollercoaster, often laughoutloud, search doubles as a traveltour (travel guide included) that takes in every delight of the Cotswolds: historic sites, hog roasts, hiking the Cotswolds Way and pub walks with her husband, often bagging the walk in favor of a slightly boozy lunch. There were highs, heartbreaks and cliffhangers as she scrambled between Hollywood, taking every wacky acting job offered, and the Cotswolds, looking for a cottage bargain. On the way 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.'Extremely entertaining, funny and beautifully written.'Katie Jarvis Cotswold Life Magazine'I fell about laughing at Diz White's book, her hilarious showbiz stories woven into her hunt for a cottage are a hoot.... her writing allows you to not only imagine you are there but to feel you have embraced the heart of the Cotswolds.
