On Facebook HuffPostReligion references the English proverb to inspire those on lent: “Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly”.

It is Spring and Easter is the butterfly!

We think The Cottage in the Wood is the perfect place to celebrate Spring this Easter.

Relax to mellow live Jazz in the bar and enjoy your favourite tipple – be it a glass of fine wine, craft beer or even a cocktail. Martini & Jazz: good combination!

Rod Kelly, the ever popular pianist is playing with his trio on Friday at 5-7pm and the saxophonist Dom Franks, previously a winner of the young Jazz musician of the year, plays on Sunday 3-5pm.

The award winning restaurant is serving high quality, locally sourced cuisine – be it an evening meal to relax with friends or a traditional Sunday roast for Easter day itself.

And The Afternoon Tea offers something really special.

Served on a 3-tier stand and silver wear to mark the occasion The Afternoon Tea is designed with all the British favourites in mind. From the perfect finger sandwiches to the scones with clotted cream and jam to the chocolate treat and the much loved Battenberg cake. If you upgrade to the Deluxe Afternoon Tea you can celebrate Spring with a glass of champagne too!

With breathtaking views across the Severn Valley and the Cotswolds beyond Spring truly comes to life at The Cottage in the Wood!
