THE MODA HOUSE NEWS
As we edge towards the month that brings Christmas and all that it entails with the seasonal build up madness, It is hard to believe that this year is almost coming to an end with an air of surprise and perhaps a tinge of sadness! But there is still lots of activities taking place both here in gorgeous Chipping Sodbury, and not so very far away From Craft and Gift Fayres to classical music in the form of The Aglica Trio with a varied programme to play. The ever-popular tribute acts are back with Now I’m Here putting on an incredible show to celebrate the amazing band Of Queen, with energy and excitement to bring to life their greatest hits crafted to transport you on a journey first hand. Up at the nearby Badminton Estate there is a day of Christmas crafting with elaborate knitting and scented candle making, Plus wreath workshops and cookery demonstrations with the chance to taste and enjoy the creations and sample the baking! November is also the month famous for Guy Fawkes Night with bonfires and fireworks to commemorate the failed Gunpowder plot, And Remembrance Day takes place as we all honour the service and sacrifice of those who fought in wars and must not be forgot. On a lighter note Mother Goose, the pantomime, is performed with a tale of golden eggs plus stunning sets and a little horseplay, So come to The Moda House to experience all that the town can offer and enjoy our lovely rooms for a short or long stay!
October heralds the change from summer to autumn and holds the promise of cooler morning mists and fresher days, Along with the most beautiful and glorious colourful blaze, and the final few moments of catching the last of the sunny rays. But life is not slowing down in Chipping Sodbury with several tribute acts coming to town from the one and only Witney Houston to U2UK To perform all of Witney’s hits, and to celebrate the mighty Irish rock legends with a nod to their distinctive sound and political sway. Elvis makes an appearance too, and Rod Stewart is here performing his classics such as You Wear it Well and Maggie May, And if that is not your bag then the Ensemble Renard are performing chamber music, and there is also a Burlesque Creepshow and Cabaret! We can also look forward to the trick and treating rituals, crazy costumes and fancy masks that go hand in hand with Halloween, And the deciduous trees shed their leaves which turn into vibrant colours like rusty red and orange creating a magical scene! So let’s get ready for cosy nights with a blanket, the changing foliage, pumpkins, sweaters, scarves and piping hot soup for lunch And enjoy the sense of transition and reflection with the season’s natural beauty grand finale and the leaves underfoot making a crunch!
This summer will soon be over, and we can anticipate cooler days and the dreaded darker morning blues, Alongside sharpened pencils, the seductive pull of fresh stationery and those shiny brand-new shoes! But there is still plenty to look forward to both here in Chipping Sodbury and in the surrounding locality From Fayres, both Craft and Spiritual, to an 80’s throwback night to bring out your moves and personality! The gardens at Badminton House are open with glorious displays of plants on a stunning and magnificent scale, And the Sodbury Players present the Legend of Sleepy Hollow with the Headless Horseman and its gothic tale. Also nearby are courses in coppicing, a traditional method of woodland management to allow light to reach the floor, And the annual Wedding Fair takes place to find local services to create the perfect day for you and the one you adore! In nearby Bath the Jane Austen Festival takes place with a Regency Costumed Promenade, plus walks and talks and much more, And is an opportunity to enjoy a varied programme inspired by the timeless works of the author, and an in-depth chance to explore. So as the back-to-school vibes continue and the long hot balmy summer holidays are finally dwindling and drawing to an end, Come to The Moda House and Chipping Sodbury for a lovely stay to discover the area either as a couple or with a friend!
