A Cotswold Stone Cottage complete with a traditional thatched roof, a bright Red Telephone Box, Fish and Chips for supper on a Friday, Roast Beef with all the trimmings for Sunday Lunch, all these things can be accurately described as quintessentially British. The picture-perfect scene that’s often been described as a “Chocolate Box Cottage” has come to mean, quaint, picturesque homes, often with thatched roofs and exposed wooden beams, that are frequently featured in sentimental depictions, especially in British culture of dream homes in an idyllic location such as the Cotswolds. Exploring this idealised area of the Country with one of several bespoke Cotswold Tours directed by a professional, experienced and friendly Tour Guide such as /cotswoldtour.co.uk, you will get to witness for yourselves the splendid scenery consisting of undulating hills, a rich, colourful, tapestry of fields, tall woodlands that cover acres of land, thriving Market Towns, traditional villages and of course the quintessentially British, Cotswold Stone Cottage with its golden, thatched roof. The Red Phone Box is often seen as a British cultural icon throughout the world, designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, the Red Telephone Box used to be a very familiar sight on the streets of the United Kingdom. Fish and chips for supper on a Friday became increasingly popular within the Christian community especially during Lent when abstaining from meat on Fridays led to fish becoming a common substitute. Usually featuring beef, lamb, or pork, alongside roast potatoes, vegetables, and gravy, with Yorkshire pudding and stuffing as common accompaniments is the quintessentially British Roast Dinner.
