What, when, where ...

Feeling peckish after Christmas? Go wild at the Great British Pudding Festival, held at the Three Ways House Hotel in Mickleton. Those who take their puddings really seriously can stay in the Spotted Dick and Custard bedroom (booking essential) and feast themselves at the Pudding Parade of seven puddings, including one mysteriously known as "Lord Randall".

And if you're still ambulant the following day, you can join in a Cotswold ramble to work up an appetite for the next pudding event.

The Great British Pudding Festival is held between 16 and 30 January at the Three Ways House Hotel, Mickleton, Chipping Campden, Gloucestershire (01386 438429).
