Pineapple Cottages, Lower Swell

My gran's name was Lily Illes and she lived in one of Pineapple Cottages at Lower Swell as a child. She left home at 15 to go and work in London and then moved to Scotland with my grandpa. I have visted and stayed in one of the cottages as a family member still owned it (unfortunately not anymore). Even as a child I thought it was the most beautiful area. I have fond memories of Stow on the Wold and Bourton on the Water and often tell people to visit the area. It was so lovely to see my gran's family name mentioned in the post.
