Understandably, the start of 2020 has been really quiet at the cottages (a bit of an understatement there!). Before the busy holiday season was due to start, we had plans to do some work to the houses. Thankfully we were able to complete these (builders were able to work and socially distance. Keeping themselves safe and healthy).
Shepherds cottage had a beautiful new slate floor put in place throughout the dining room and lounge. New rugs, dining table and chairs all work together with the wood fire stoves to make this a lovely, cosy cottage.
In Granston Cottage some of the slates on the roof had slipped and maintenance needed to be completed on the chimney. The roof tiles were all taken off and replaced and now a new, wonderful roof awaits visitors!

In Otter Cottage, we decided that it was time to update the kitchen sink and surface. Now there is a brand new, gleaming sink waiting to be used.

In the garden across the road, we have worked hard on renovating the small summer house. This is now looking fantastic and a perfect place to hide away, amongst the flowers, looking across the fields (maybe to enjoy a cup of tea or a glass (or two) of wine).

These are some of the things that we have been working on over the winter and spring. Now we are getting ready for visitors and hope to welcome you very soon.
