Christmas Season in The Cotswolds 🎄 Snowy English Countryside & The Start of Cozy Christmas at Home✨

[@IamDaria]

Hello friends, I got very mixed opinions on how early is too early for Christmas season to begin. But with this snowy day we've had, I just couldn't stop myself! ❄ It's getting rather festive here, and there's not escaping it. Especially today, it's storming outside and I'm afraid not a single autumn leaf will hold on. I will not, however, be putting up a Christmas tree until the first week of December. So at least that way I can enjoy the transition season for a bit longer. What are your thoughts? Too early or not? And even if it is early... are you excited? 🌲(P.S. New postcard collection is now ready for preorder! Get them here: dariamundi.com/painting-prints/ )

I loved it!!!

[@Marsee800]

@@IamDaria Not too early 😊🎄

[@pippas5808]

I'm feeling ready, but I don't start any really Christmassy stuff until the start of advent - we go to a nativity exhibition on the first Saturday of advent and that's the real start of Christmas for us!

[@patriciapadgett4696]

Hola from Spain. Never too early, we all need the feel good , cosy. and joy in our lives feeling more than ever these days. If it makes you happy, do it. A beautiful video in a beautiful part of the world. Hugs ❤

[@teddyroosevelt9542]

I love England and its people. I would have liked to have been born in that glorious country.

[@jillychandler]

I live in West Devon, England, and I LOVE sticky toffee pudding! We have it a lot down here in the Pubs, and I love it with ice cream. The houses in the Cotswolds are so beautiful, and so essentially English. I have brought my Christmas tree that I have grown in a pot for two years (when I had it in the house for Christmas last) into my sitting room now, and have the coloured lights on it, which is what we always had on our trees back in the 60s. I have yet to decorate it, but am looking forward to doing that. I spend Christmas Day alone with my rescue greyhound Madge, but am happy to do that, as it is just the way it is for me. Blessings to you lovely girl, from Jilly & Madge. xxx

[@tracecasey]

What a beautiful part of the world! Sticky toffee pudding is one of my favourites too!

[@Helenlouisee]

I’m in Cornwall 😁 and also love sticky toffee pudding 😂

[@elizabethcutrofello2572]

You're tree sounds wonderful! I love your beautiful area, and send greetings from Essex, Connecticut US🎉😊

[@ruthsdyspraxiacontent]

Hi Jilly, I also live in Devon, brought up in South Devon and currently living near Exeter. And loving sticky toffee pud, with clotted or pouring cream ahh. Have a lovely Christmas, love what you said about the tree. Best wishes, Ruth

[@jillychandler]

@@ruthsdyspraxiacontent So lovely to read your message. I live near Okehampton, so not that far from you! Lovely part of the world. Wishing you a wonderful Christmas Day tomorrow. Blessings from Jilly & Madge the rescue greyhound. xxx

[@mariaknowles8704]

Sticking toffee pudding is 1 of my favourites & served with ice cream is a must!! 😊

[@nadurkee46]

Thanks for the memories. I loved the four years my family lived in the Cotswold.

[@louisesouthgate5231]

I live very near the village where The Holiday was filmed.... I was there last Saturday . Despite the awful weather it was nice to wrap up, walk round the village and visit the lovely little shops. 😊

[@sharminikamaragoda2976]

The most breathtaking and cosy Christmas living. Thank you so very much for sharing.One day God willing , I will be in Stone on the wall to experience Christmas.

[@Godskidsug]

Stowe on the Wold.

[@Kukuisjustchillin]

I'm so obsessed with everything vintage and classic looking since I was 12 years old (I'm 18 now), this is the kind of life I dream myself to be in , the slow living , celebrating each season , it's not just about the "aesthetic" , this kind of living just makes me feel at warmth and comfort , I'm someone who has always been in city since I was a kid , and that's why this is the kind of lifestyle I dream of!. 🫶🏻🩷🍂🤎🎀☁️🪐🕰️✨

[@Marsee800]

What a delightful cozy video. It brought warmth and joy to my heart this morning. Thank you ❤️

[@OnelineadaywithLaura]

Winter is my favorite season! ❤

[@IamDaria]

Aah it can be so cozy and beautiful! ❄️

[@ruthsdyspraxiacontent]

please give me all your positives about Winter haha I get such bad seasonal depression

[@marilenafieru927]

I wish I will be there. It is magical. Like we are in in old story❤

[@pokkomalife]

What a wonderful video. I am healed and moved by all of your videos. When I found a scene from the film ‘The Holiday’ in one of your videos, I was very moved because it is my favourite film. I am looking forward to watching your past videos slowly from now on. I'm sorry for my poor English. I am a 66-year-old housewife living in Japan.🤗💖

[@cerridwencottagediary9194]

What a stunning video, thank you. I have spent the week here in Wales watching the snow fall outside with the fire crackling in my cottage and begin to feel very festive

[@IamDaria]

Aah this sounds so wonderful! ✨

[@ladybrooks3885]

As always, a most stunning visual video. Heart warming, dreamy, lovely. You are so talented. Thank you for sharing your vision with us.

[@g.970]

I start decorating for Christmas right after Halloween. It takes me a week so I want to enjoy it for as long as possible.

[@jodieauckland8864]

The beautiful church doors at Stowe were also the inspiration for my young adult fantasy quest trilogy series of novels, called Soraki The Defender. I didn't know where they were at the time. I just saw a picture on pinterest. So gorgeous. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful part of the world.

[@dianeknott3655]

Oh, Daria, this was so charming and cozy and it brought tears to my eyes to see the beautiful Cotswolds cottages of my dreams and memories of our trips to Broadway and Stow-on-The Wold. Thank you so much for these beautiful images and your always delightful chatterings. And...the visuals of the sticky toffee pudding...oh to sit by an open fire in one of those cottages with a dish of that and maybe a glass of mulled wine...Happy Holidays to you...ours begins here in the States next Thursday as we celebrate Thanksgiving Day, which is, I suppose, the opening day of our Christmas Season. Thank you for this video and all of your others. I'm so glad I found your channel and have been a follower for ages now.

[@alejandrorodriguez4189]

The best season of the year Winter ❄️ with snow 🤍

[@jessicajordan680]

After such a lovely and cozy vlog, I don't think enthusiastic screaming is appropriate but dear lord Cotwolds Christmas makes my cottagecore heart just DANCE and SPARKLE! Thank you for showing us, Miss Daria ❤ and your beautiful watercolor cards are so cheerful 😊 🎄 I would frame them for decoration. What a lovely vignette they would make! 😮

[@debrasams2362]

What a lovely area! I love the cottages and rolling hills. So picturesque. 😊

[@Quis7919]

Hello! You always put so much effort and thought into your videos. Thank you again for this much-needed content. Comfortable and cosy. A beautiful snow.

[@rachelschappacher1100]

I love the movie The Holiday!!! Thank you for sharing your snow joy! Snow is just magical! I so enjoy your chats in your videos! My mother loved your print! I cherish mine as well... Looking forward to picking out some more for gifts and my own home. 😊❄️

[@angelasinyard3743]

Good morning! Beautiful scenery and delicious food 🎉😊

[@SoulCareOver50]

This is really beautiful. I live nearer London now and I so miss the English countryside. You've captured it beautifully 😍

[@Rohinivirgo]

Surprising snow lit the festive spirit !! Dreamy laid back village of Cotsworld with the sparkle is reason to add spring to your footsteps. What character the chapel doorway and those stoic tree trunks with cascading roots....way too picturesque. Cosy decor and dancing candle lights with the hug of STP was indeed so so comforting..thanks for taking us along and the best for your post card start up. Seasons Greetings ❤️🤍💚

So Happy that you shared your gorgeous moments with us while on the other side of earth, where i live, we have a dry autumn,,, and every moment waiting for rain and wet weather

[@caroldyer1000]

I made my comment about Christmas before watching your video, it’s not at all about Christmas, it’s just beautiful. I live in Oxfordshire, and go to the Cotswolds alot , how they do Christmas is beautiful. Thank you for this peaceful cosy, and heart warming video

[@РоманПаляниця-к5э]

Прекрасне, заспокійливе та дужепозитивне відео, дякую!

[@IamDaria]

😊❄️✨

[@1Thedairy]

A very heartwarming video. My husband loves sticky toffee pudding but I confess I’ve never made it. However I have made a lemon drizzle cake today as the weather has turned very windy and rainy. As you say it’s so comforting 😊

[@LivAMTech]

That moving train toy ♥ remind me of childhood, u r great filmmaker by the way

[@IamDaria]

Thank you so much! I do love these train toys as well. So cute!

[@marshaharwood8883]

[@montei.3310]

Un vídeo increíblemente bello, Daria !!!! Tiene sus peligros la nieve, pero da belleza, romanticismo, es realmente MÁGICA !!!. Entiendo tu emoción al verla y salir rápidamente para sentirla, y captar imágenes pintorescas que demuestran el gran símbolo de que el invierno se está aproximando. Buen provecho con eso pudín y a seguir disfrutando de los cambios del clima. Un abrazo desde EE.UU

[@IamDaria]

🥰🥰🥰

[@Escudera_de_Roble]

😍🙏🌨️ Daria, this video put a huge smile on my face! ❄️Few things in life can be better than waking up to a crisp snowy morning! Or sitting by the Doors or Durin, the famed Gates of Moria, for that matter! 😉 The imagery and cinematography in this video are so beautiful!! And your new cards are stunning too! 🤩 It will be difficult to choose among so many enchanting illustrations! 😅 And you even gave us a pudding for desert: Yum! 😋 Thank you so much for sharing the joy of these moments! 🙏👏👏👏🤗🥰😘 (PS: I'm from the green North of Spain, our weather is usually quite similar to yours... And we are sooo not prepared for it either! 😅 But I love it! 😜☔ ⛈️ 🌧️ 🌨️)

The Holiday is also one of my favorites. I'll watch it once Thanksgiving has come and gone here in the USA. Thank you for a lovely video.

[@gurkmeja2021]

What a pleasure to get to watch such a cosy wonderful video 🌟✨️🌟 Feelgood in spades!🕯You're so good at making videos! 👍 Love the whole vibe. Have a lovely weekend! /Ditte 🤓 🇸🇪

Thank you so much Ditte! I hope you have a lovely day! 🥰

I loved this video, specially my beloved sticky toffee pudding. Thank you for showing us glimpses of our home away from home.

[@janemacdonald3859]

Thank you for this amazing video Daria. I always enjoy your videos but this one was extra special. That church door with the trees was fantastic. I hope to see that one day. Xx 🌳😊❄

[@oldcrowcreations]

Good morning Daria! That pudding looks amazing! 😋 I made your apple cinnamon swirl bread last week. It was sooo good. We had a little bit snow here yesterday as well and it’s already gone. 3 years is a long time with no snow! I can’t blame you for being so excited. Winter is not my favorite, but I do enjoy the beauty of the snow especially near the holidays. I would love to visit the Cotswolds one day. I hope your printer works out. Have a wonderful day sweet lady. ♥️

[@IamDaria]

Good morning! 😊 Oh I’m glad the recipe turned out well! ✨ I’m not a fan of winter either, I must say, but December is the most bearable because there are so many activities to distract yourself with during festive season, so the dreary days don’t bother me so much. The rest of it, however, can be rather depressing! 😅 I hope this winter will be kind to us.

[@cathylynnpietranton]

It's such a lovely video. Thank you for sharing. ❤

[@marcelabishop1442]

I just discover your channel 😃, what a delightful surprise !!! Thank you for your thoughts and recipes. God bless you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼protect you and guide you in the path your heart wants to follow ❤🥰

[@ewaworonowicz2653]

Hi Daria, I've just recently discovered your channel and fell in love with it! 😊 I noticed that for some reason this year many people, including myself, are feeling like starting the Christmas season early. I can already see many Christmas trees, lights and decorations, ready and twinkling, and people feeling exactly like you do! I'm sure there is a reason for it...🎄💖

[@IamDaria]

Aah thank you for watching! 🥰 Yes it does seem like it, doesn’t it! I usually refuse to even look at anything Christmas related until December 1st, but this year it just feels right already! The rogue snowy day we got also helped! 😄❄️

[@cathryneallen9257]

Just beautiful!!! Thank you. ❤❤❤

Oooh England in snow is amazing!

The cottages are so magical and you caught the very essence of them, beautifully done, thank you ❣️❣️🥰🐿️🦉🐑🦔🦔🐇🎄🎄🍄🍄☃️❄️

[@Lillyjoy]

I like how you incorporated the clips of your reaction to the snow, because I could feel your excitement! It would be cool if you also included more in the moment clips of you talking in more videos :)

[@Saints0611]

I live in the Chicago area of the U.S. My husband and I visited Lancashire, England a few years ago and stayed in a manor house that its menu included sticky toffee pudding, served with vanilla ice cream. I had it twice before we left and have made it again since coming back home. Utterly delicious. I will try your recipe as well, thank you for sharing!

[@Godskidsug]

I'm a Christian missionary in Uganda Africa... I'm from Lancashire ❤❤🙏🎄😇

[@AngieRichmond]

Living in Canada we have snow every year and it’s easy to focus on all the negatives (of which there are many) but this year I’m trying to look at winter through different eyes and appreciate it more. It’s wonderful you were able to appreciate it too. Just stumbled across your channel and I’m really enjoying your videos. 💙💙💙

[@raewynannbenten1385]

I would love to experience a white Christmas, at least one time. I live in Perth, West Australia, where we experience some of the hottest summers. It is not unusual for the temperatures to reach and exceed 40 degrees Celsius (104 + degrees Fahrenheit ) around Christmas time. Traditional fare here is seafood, salads and light fruit and pavlovas for dessert. It is just too hot for anything else. I guess we all yearn for something different at times.

[@AngieRichmond]

@ oh totally! Where I live in Canada we can get 40c in the summer and -40c in the winter. We see it all! It’s definitely something to experience and hopefully you will be able to some day 😊

[@elinal.4625]

Dear Daria, I loooove your cosy English countryside videos so much. Visited the Cotswolds last year in summer and enjoyed every second of it. Everything reminded me of Brambly Hedge, classic novels and actually of your romantic cinematography. Thank you for creating magic ✨ I wish you a wonderful festive season ❄️🕯️🥰

[@alexandrawallner8814]

Thanks so much for this very wonderful trip to the Cotswolds! The cinematography was just spectacular! You really brought the spirit of Christmas to us! Just great!!! Have a wonderful holiday!!!!

[@LivingInTheSouthOfSpain]

It’s been ages that I haven’t had hot toffee sticky pudding. Where I live it never snows and the sun shines all year long. Which is great but just not Christmasy😅, I love you poetic videos, the imagery, the words and the whole content. Keep the child within you live and kicking 💜💜💜

[@lisamcb]

First time watcher. Just delightful. Great content, As we head into another hot summer in Aus, seeing the crispness of winter was gorgeous. I’ll be back here for more.

[@milenamajic]

so pretty. Here in Western Canada, Alberta we have about 6 inches of snow or so, so far and it keeps snowing. Back in my homecountry of Croatia we get snow but not as much as Canada does lol I miss my homecountry so much :(
