April Showers and Fools

A little hint at times that the long winter is nearly over as the days get longer and the clocks change,

And we can look forward to lighter evenings as the practise of advancing clocks alters the time and range.

In Chipping Sodbury we have one of the world’s leading guitar quartets performing, along with a Craft Fayre,

The return of comedian Ed Byrne and the UK’s top Carpenters Experience show with all their hits to share!

It is also the month to spoil loved ones on Mothering Sunday, and to flip and enjoy a pancake or two,

As both events have their own traditions and will be celebrated by many to both indulge and say thank you!

March is a month that can be either winter or spring with blustery and sunny spells as nature begins its story

With flowers beginning to bloom, and the tulips and daffodils appearing in all their magnificent glory!

It is also a month that carries strong symbolism when animals wake from hibernation to the transformation

Of new growth, alongside the spring-cleaning rituals that become a fixation of the whole nation!

So let’s just enjoy the taste of things to come and celebrate St Patricks Day with vibrant celebrations,

Plus the famous Red Nose Day encouraging people to have fun to raise money for various organisations!

February can often seem like a difficult month with us all getting fed up with gloomy mornings,

And driving to and from work in the dark accompanied by the constant ice and snow chaos warnings!

Financially it can be challenging after the festive period, and the bank balance may be alarmingly low

But we can also happily anticipate the first snowdrops pushing through the ground as they begin to grow!

There is still plenty of activities taking place nearby with a Scotch whisky tasting up at Badminton Estate

Along with the Bristol Ensemble showcasing the transition from winter to spring with music to celebrate.

Chipping Sodbury’s Secret Sunday Comedy Club is back one more plus the return of an 80’s spell

With huge hits from Duran Duran, Wham, Culture Club, Frankie goes to Hollywood and Soft Cell!

February is also the month of love and a chance to show affection through cards, chocolates and roses,

With even the opportunity of marriage if he or she gets down on one knee and romantically proposes!

So come to The Moda House for the new marmalade and see if the addition of chillies works for you,

But be sure to contact us directly to check the availability and price and book a stay for a night or two!
