Our first snowy morning of winter 2025. A dusting of snow but a beautiful crisp morning.

Had to take these photos of the last of the autumn leaves as I closed the girls in for the night!

Somewhere over the rainbow...

It's been a while since we've posted as we've had lots of activity going on in the background. So we were delighted to see this Google review from a guest who stayed with us recently.
I love hearing the wide variety of reasons people choose our accommodation and learning about the fantastic things they discover to do in the area.

My favourite hen Nera passed away today. She was sick in April and made a miraculous recovery although she never laid again. She wasn't herself the last week but was still checking up on me while I was cleaning outside the apartment yesterday and finding a few spots to peck at something tasty. She was so inquisitive and friendly and she'll be missed. Here's 5 photos from more than 500 I probably have of her over the last two years.
