Understandably, one of the most photographed cottages in England.
Not least of all by me who can never resist it, but who could?
Slightly regretting our stop at the lovely Bakers Arms in Broad Campden just down the road for a late lunch (fab home-made fish pie) as I think I just missed the best of the lighting on that extraordinary hedge. But that's an excuse for yet another photograph next time.
Pike Cottage in the 'suburb' of Westington in Chipping Campden, where the road divides, the road to the lovely, golden-stone village of Broad Campden just to the right of the cottage.
I'm wondering if 'Pike' refers to the old Turnpike, a toll cottage here on the edge of Chipping Campden would have made perfect sense as the new roads of the 18th century cut across the empty rolling spaces of the Cotswolds.
