When my husband and I were deciding where to go on our minimoon, we thought the Cotswolds would be perfect. The rural area to the west of England is known for its quintessential countryside charm: brown stone cottages, cosy pubs, and rolling hills. We'd both visited a few times and enjoyed it. But when we found ourselves struggling to move for tourists with selfie sticks (apparently still a thing) and paying £16 ($22) for a coffee and a very disappointing grilled cheese, we realized the area might have become a victim of its own success.

Hugh Marsh discovered a spider from Australia in his shoe before a wedding, resulting in his hand swelling significantly due to a reaction to the spider's hairs.

The project combined digital artists' talents to create a fantasy mystery novel showcasing England's folklore through vivid illustrations.

The Fish, situated on the 500-acre Farncombe Estate, offers a unique blend of a rustic Cotswolds experience with innovative luxury accommodations like their Hideaway Huts.
