For an unusual UK shopping encounter. A year- round magical Christmas experience in the picturesque Bourton-on-the-Water in the Cotswolds. Full of exquisite and imaginative decorations from around the world, we visited in the height of summer and it felt incredibly odd perusing various winter-themed decorations, baubles and Christmas nativity scenes, hidden amongst huge Christmas trees, listening to traditional hymns, while standing in just a t-shirt, shorts and sunglasses. Quite possibly the strangest Christmas shopping I'll ever do.
