I love British culture and history. It’s so old and well established. As young as Josie is, she remains rooted in her culture and history which is lovely to see. In all honesty, if it was not for Josie, I do not think I would have put a raised garden bed in my yard nor plenty of lovely perennial flowers.
I love watching your vlogs Josie. It's like catching up with a friend. I'm Australian and when the awful heat hits here we plan our day according to the UV rating as well as temperature. Gardening at night really does happen here in Sydney once we get to the height of summer!
Yes! Here in phoenix, arizona, the best time to work from March-October is 3a-7a, when the temp is below 100F/37-38C. No need to worry about waking the neighbors, they're also up and running the same!
what a fab hostess you are josie looking after your friends with such love and enthusiasm the sunflower field was spectacular did you get any nice photos sunflowers are of course leo colours
I told my husband this morning that I’m going to start calling our zucchini “courgettes”. I’ve never heard the term before this video! It sounds much prettier 😂 (We live in the states.. Ohio)
I love your kitchen. If the only thing you cooked in it was a reheat take away it would still be a visual treat. The island counter top is just a work of art .
I love this kind of vlog when we get to come with you on adventures and also in your house, when cooking and such. Such a cozy vlog! If I could live anywhere it would be in Cotswolds for sure.
I recently found your channel through Freddy’s channel. I am absolutely loving your videos. They are so soothing and nice to watch. Very impressed by you on so many levels.
I would love to live in the Cotswolds - and we are still thinking about actually doing this in a couple of years ❤️. The heat the last 2 weeks has actually made me ill - overheating and affecting my blood meds - but it finally cooled down today - so grateful for that. Your dressing table looks fabulous in thd ‘gold room’ - first time I think I’ve seen the ensuite bathroom too -
I find your vlogs so refreshing so thank you. Also I totally understand about feeling frazzled with the heat as I have been suffering too and glad it's cooler at last!
I'm watching from Greece so heatwaves are very common for us i put my pillow cases in the frizer my sheets it helps a lot!harvest with the bikini i never though this haha!
Josie, there is a cooling mattress cover that plugs in and cools you while you sleep. I saw it on Brandy Jackson’s UA-cam channel last year. She live in Arizona, and says it’s amazing.
We are never too old to run thru the sprinkler! I also have the Thyme vege table cloth and it is my favorite. I will try the squash and puff pastry muffins-they look great.
Josie enjoy the heat and sun, we are having cool rainy weather. I wanted a pool day!😒 . I know we need rain but I just wanted to swim laps then float while reading. Instead laundry and cleaning day. Your dinner sounds fabulous.
Love your videos. We use to live in the Cotswolds, now retired in Devon, England. Super memories for us from your travels around. I miss Dalesford. 😁Keep then coming. ❤️👋 Mrs. O x
A lovely way to spend a day in the heatwave. I was wondering if guests of Strawtop could order vegetables and flowers from you? I know I would be interested if I was staying there for a day or two 😊
Josie Cooking Fabulous This Week, looked Yummy. IT'S Difficult To do Anything When Too Hot. Fortunately it's Cooler in Yorkshire Now. Have a lovely Week. Xx 😘😊
Josie I make those puff pastry roses with apple slices peach marmalade and sprinkle of cinnamon and powdered sugar in the Fall it is so simple and scrumptious🤗😋
In Ontario Canada, I don’t know if I’ll survive well without central air conditioning. When it’s hot it’s hot. Seeing you still be active in the heat wave is the opposite of what I would do, which is sit there and not move 😩
Next year I can see a flower winner at the country fair! Wholesome vlog, I just live for the bustle of London & the country life in the Cotswolds. Love watching from N Ireland Josie x
Hi Josie, because of you I got the Surfshark and just last week my daughter could keep her brand new job because of it! We are American expats in Paris and having this app makes everything easier! Thank you again! 🥰🥰
You know Josie and Charlie, as a picnic aficionado : ) I find there are methodologies to avoid the invasion of unwanted ants and other insects. Just spray down foldable Cardboard Boxs the circumference of your eating area the day before. The day of the picnic, lay out your blankets and spray the surface paying special attention to the edges. Of course, Baby Wipes are a girls best friend when it comes to cleanliness after the completion of this task. You and your guest can enjoy a leisurely picnic of three hours or more without fighting ants and other insects. PS Spray your bodies down with Non-Deet Misquito spray upon leaving the house and again before leaving your cottage. Love and Respect from Gwendolyn (Mayfair , London ).
Good morning beautiful darling josie I hope you charlie and the boys are well it's so lovely to see you again thanks so much for sharing your lovely vlog stay safe xxx
i just love the evolution of your vlog! and as a gen x 50 viewer ... i find your career fascinating! love your countryside vlog i hope it leads to your 0wn show and products!?? sm cute cottage core garden dresses housewares etc!?? my intuition is saying that for YOU :) love seeing the country side clothes gardens ad dogs ( i always loved big pups but darn now im in love with the sausages!!) love the trips to london! this new england gal just loves your vlog also love you and freddy together! thx for great content!
Can you give links on the entire Pink room. I’m in love with the bedding especially. It all works so perfectly together. I would love to design my bedroom like that 💗
Wow Josie! Your garden is looking amazing! I get so much inspo from you, I have just moved to a cottage with a very plain garden and can’t wait to get started. I would love to know what to budget and what you have spent this year on plants, fertiliser and soil etc to accomplish such beautiful results- perhaps an idea for a future video? Sorry if that’s a bit nosey of me xx
Very nice additions to the house, I love the fantasy of the curtains!! I would love to see more of the bathrooms in the house, just to have an idea of how many bathrooms you have and how to decorate, we usually only see your master bathroom! Am I the only one? Greetings from Italy!!!! ;)
What a fabulous video Josie... Please enter next years village produce competition for veg & flowers, I'm shore you will do well, & you would be ever so happy,I can just picture this💐
The pastry zucchini looked fantastic. Can you show the inside of the thermomix? I’m always amazed at how well it chops everything. I would like to see the blades. Also can you allow us to hear how loud it is? Loving the soft piano music you are using lately. Just so relaxing. Thanks
Josie, I'm into 60 Minutes Australia on UA-cam too. They have some great segments! Many people in the US now watch Sky News Australia because they seem to report US news far better than US media outlets. Go Australia 🦘! 👍 Please keep sharing videos, books, podcasts, and magazines you're into. It's nice.
Oh Josie you should definitely enter the country fair next year. You will win 🏆 the flower and vegetable competition and think you could give Alan a run for his money in the sweet pea section. Much love to you, Charlie and the boys xxxxxx
Lovely Josie, there is a thing/kitchen tool called a ''zoodler" that makes zucchini and/or yellow squash into spaghetti . Thought it would give you another ay to use your squashs. We eat zucchini raw in our salads but I can only eat the long necks of the yellow squash, (I'm weird). Also, (1) there are hats & baseball caps you can soak in water to keep you cooler since you and Charlie are outside in heat so much (2) Dyson makes air-condition fans, in cse you didn't already know. All can be found on Amazon. Hopeyou have wonderful day!!! MM-TEXAS
Cooling towel around the neck works wonders too. I bought and used it when I was at Disney World , Orlando, Florida a few years ago in the hottest time of the year.
You definately would win with your vegetables and flowers. Go girl. Do Elemis produce non scented products? I have sensitive skin and do not like to use perfumed products.
With your choice of meals I think you would love a UA-cam channel called Pick Up Limes…..she is Canadian but lives in Amsterdam. She does beautiful vegan meals set in a gorgeous kitchen.
I'm so curious how the UK handled all of the heat. I live in it everyday in the summer. End of June thru September typically 35C+ so we all have aircon. I cry when my aircon gets overrun from the heat.
Mobile aircon units and installed aircon are on the rise here in the UK. Especially in the south where it is hottest. We have graduated from a mobile unit to installed aircon. Best decision ever. Our family who don’t have aircon and have come to us to cool down would agree. ☀️
It's not much fun! The only place I feel cool is in the supermarket or sat in my car with the aircon on, it was over 30 degrees in my bedroom at 10.30pm the other night 🥵, our houses are just not geared up for prolonged high temperatures.
Josie, We have been trying to come to the Cotswolds and desperately want to stay at Strawtop Cottage but your website won’t let me book it or even look at dates here in America. Can you help me?
I love British culture and history. It’s so old and well established. As young as Josie is, she remains rooted in her culture and history which is lovely to see. In all honesty, if it was not for Josie, I do not think I would have put a raised garden bed in my yard nor plenty of lovely perennial flowers.
Oh that’s so amazing to hear!
ditto 🥰 i’m obsessed with her and her content so genuine ❤️
You need to enter your flowers and vegetables next year Josie 💖. What a lovely calming vlog x
Josie I am so impressed with your cooking! The fact that you even made your own pastry was very impressive. Gosh, is there anything you can’t do?
I love watching your vlogs Josie. It's like catching up with a friend. I'm Australian and when the awful heat hits here we plan our day according to the UV rating as well as temperature. Gardening at night really does happen here in Sydney once we get to the height of summer!

It’s so interesting to hear how other people live in different parts of the world ❤️
what a fab hostess you are josie looking after your friends with such love and enthusiasm the sunflower field was spectacular did you get any nice photos sunflowers are of course leo colours
I told my husband this morning that I’m going to start calling our zucchini “courgettes”. I’ve never heard the term before this video! It sounds much prettier 😂 (We live in the states.. Ohio)
This is such a calming, lovely vlog. 💚
Such an enjoyable vlog! I love watching you getting ready to entertain guests ☺️ the food and drinks always look delicious xx

This was the most relaxing vlog I've seen in a long while. Perfect after a day of working non stop on projects
You'll have to enter the flower contest at the country fair next year, Josie!
I find your vlogs so refreshing so thank you. Also I totally understand about feeling frazzled with the heat as I have been suffering too and glad it's cooler at last!
Just loved the blog. Garden, recipes, Cotswold life. So inspirational Josie!
I'm watching from Greece so heatwaves are very common for us i put my pillow cases in the frizer my sheets it helps a lot!harvest with the bikini i never though this haha!
Great vlog! I give you credit for everything you did in a heat wave. Im counting down the days until winter!🤠Greetings from Dallas, Texas
Josie, there is a cooling mattress cover that plugs in and cools you while you sleep. I saw it on Brandy Jackson’s UA-cam channel last year. She live in Arizona, and says it’s amazing.
I definitely need that!
Beautiful vlog that sunflower picnic was divine! Wish you and Charlie would do a coffee table book!!
We are never too old to run thru the sprinkler! I also have the Thyme vege table cloth and it is my favorite. I will try the squash and puff pastry muffins-they look great.
Josie enjoy the heat and sun, we are having cool rainy weather. I wanted a pool day!😒 . I know we need rain but I just wanted to swim laps then float while reading. Instead laundry and cleaning day. Your dinner sounds fabulous.
Josie, your new music is just moving and beautiful, calming, thank you!
Absolutely stunning. You are living the dream. 🌸 Loved the vintage cars.
Love your videos. We use to live in the Cotswolds, now retired in Devon, England. Super memories for us from your travels around. I miss Dalesford. 😁Keep then coming. ❤️👋 Mrs. O x
For me a perfect day for a picnic always looks delectable, the atmosphere, the food mmn, thanks inspiring.
Memories of melting days viewed on the first rainy day🥰🥰🥰
Hi Josie I'm South African and my neighbors house is just like that. You are spot on!
Originally from Holland - it's a Dutch Gable (of course the Dutch invaded SA).
A lovely way to spend a day in the heatwave. I was wondering if guests of Strawtop could order vegetables and flowers from you? I know I would be interested if I was staying there for a day or two 😊
Josie Cooking Fabulous This Week, looked Yummy. IT'S Difficult To do Anything When Too Hot. Fortunately it's Cooler in Yorkshire Now. Have a lovely Week. Xx 😘😊
Josie I make those puff pastry roses with apple slices peach marmalade and sprinkle of cinnamon and powdered sugar in the Fall it is so simple and scrumptious🤗😋
Am looking forward to you joining your veggies and your flowers in the fair next year! 😊❤️
In Ontario Canada, I don’t know if I’ll survive well without central air conditioning. When it’s hot it’s hot. Seeing you still be active in the heat wave is the opposite of what I would do, which is sit there and not move 😩
It’s not easy haha!
Yes! I’m in Ontario Canada too 👋🏻 it’s hard to stay motivated in the heat
2am in Australia and I am awake- lucky me, a lovely vlog to keep me entertained
Same...insomniacs unite 👋🇦🇺
Next year I can see a flower winner at the country fair! Wholesome vlog, I just live for the bustle of London & the country life in the Cotswolds. Love watching from N Ireland Josie x
Everything is Perfect as Always Josie!! Thank You So Much!! Sending Love!!🌹💕🌹
Ed Sheeran scarecrow! 🤣😂🤣😂 That was awesome! I ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ him! Lots of Love from California! 😘🐚🌴🌞🌊
I think the English countryside looks like a pretty hard place to top for an idyllic place to live!❤️Everything always looks like a dream!😊💐
Hi Josie, because of you I got the Surfshark and just last week my daughter could keep her brand new job because of it! We are American expats in Paris and having this app makes everything easier! Thank you again! 🥰🥰
Yay so happy to hear that!

Summer squash is how this vegetable is known in the US 🇺🇸 enjoying your video Josie love it when you prepare food.

It’s so lovely to live at Cotswolds💗💗💗
Can I send you a recipe for a tomato pie? It’s savory, not sweet. I live in Alabama so it’s a summer staple. Honestly, it’s delicious!
Hello darling Josie,we're having a heatwave here too. Hope you are doing well ☺️ 💕 💗
Creative content great tips always something to learn watching ur lovely videos.
Oh Josie you should definitely enter the country fair next year. You will win 🏆 the flower and vegetable competition and think you could give Alan a run for his money in the sweet pea section. Much love to you, Charlie and the boys xxxxxx
Oh my Lands~ I just found out that a courgette is a zucchini!!! I have wonder about this for a while now!! Lol!!
Loved that you still blogging.you sure would have won some of those veg award.
You should definitely enter the village fair competition and I'm sure you'll do very well
Such an adorable Bathroom! Lidia and her Sweets were at the Farmhouse, did you see them?
I saw them on the day of my talk but not the heatwave days! 🥰
OMG ME TOO!!! 60 minutes Australia! So good

I love your bathroom you film in and ensuite off the Gold room looked very nice. Would love a tour

You'll totally rock the fair competitions. x
Such an idyllic vlog😍 x
Josie, can you please do a full house tour?
Lovely video. Your village fair looked amazing 🤩

Zoodle recipes would be awesome!

I’ve made apple and cinnamon muffins, like you did the courgette ones
Loved this so much.
Competition is officially put on notice!
