Glamping in our camppod...

















We've had our first fun nights of guests staying in the camping biome, camppod.
What an amazing success, the children loved the feast by the fire...

...as did the parents.
We are now booked for August, but have spaces in September when it will be a delight to have the extra weather protection, and blissful warmth

Spring joys...flowers and produce


What a delight to gather fresh eggs for breakfast, after a wander down the lanes amongst the spring flowers...fresh hedgerow scents to awaken the senses. Book now for June, long sunset evenings

Geese on the farm


Our wild Canada Geese have hatched 5 babies this year....amazing.
Only 4 last year...!
They are very proud parents swimming on our small lake

Swimming Pool revival



We've been working hard to get the pool ready. A lot of helpful scrubbers !










So now with brilliant sunshine it's ready for swimmers, children really love using it. It's a sheltered site and was a hot spot today.

Even a local mallard duck fancies it...nesting in the flower bed...

Cornwall is blooming...

How beautiful Cornwall is today, sunshine and flowers.....the hedgerows are stunning, the best time of year for wildflowers. Our lane outside the cottages has been picture of primroses, and now being overtaken by blue swathes of bluebells.

Our new lambs are still being bottle fed, but getting quite demanding now, they are a joy to take for a walk. They followed me into the kitchen this evening while I was getting their feed ready.

Even more exciting news is our camping biome, campod, which is now ready for occupancy. We're delighted with it and the immense feeling of relaxation experienced when being down the fields, secluded and safe but great views and a whole field for the children to play in. The tree ferns are shooting loads of new fronds, and the tropical feel of your own mini eden is amazing.

Wonderful sunset over Mayrose...

Because of our aspect we get to see the most wonderful sunsets from our cottages all year round. They make a lovely backdrop to any holiday!
