Stow on the Wold 22-25/05/2015

Jack and Ken organised a YHA weekend at Stow on the wold 22-25/05/2015
Jack wrote..................For the late May Bank Holiday this year we went to Stow on the Wold in the Cotswolds. Twenty one of us from Stockport joined seven from SMLG in London for what turned out to be a very convivial and enjoyable weekend.

On the Saturday the London group went on a brewery visit to the Hook Norton Brewery. Most of the rest of us drove to Chipping Campden and walked along the first section of the Cotswold Way to Broadway. After about an hours stop in the village where some of us took refreshments, we walked back to Chipping by a different route.
Sunday saw the bulk of us walking to Lower Slaughter where we had orgasmic ice creams from the old mill. We then continued to Bourton on the Water for an extended lunch break. Eventually we grew tired of the crowds and made our way back to Stow.
Many thanks to Ken for booking the trip, we hope to organise a similar event next year. Jack
