Thought for a wet Monday…
You are holding a cup of coffee when someone comes along and bumps into you making you spill your coffee everywhere.
Why did you spill the coffee?
"Because someone bumped into me!!!"
Wrong.
You spilled the coffee because there was coffee in your cup.
Had there been tea in the cup, you would have spilled tea.
Whatever is inside the cup is what will spill out.
Therefore, when life comes along and shakes you (which WILL happen), whatever is inside you will come out. It's easy to fake it, until you get rattled.
So we have to ask ourselves... “what's in my cup?"
When life gets tough, what spills over?
Joy, gratitude, peace and humility?
Anger, bitterness, victim mentality and quitting-tendencies?
Life provides the cup, YOU choose how to fill it.
Today let's work today the 22 April towards filling our cups with gratitude, forgiveness, joy, words of affirmation, resilience, positivity; and kindness, gentleness and love for others. 🤗

Healthy AND relaxing!

Regular exercise is recommended, yet for many people, it isn't possible. This blog looks at how a 30-minute soak in a hot tub is comparable to exercise.

Well worth the ten minute drive from our holiday cottages.

Ooh good idea! Ages since our last visit.

Have you been across the restored Wireworks Bridge in Tintern yet? Built in 1876 to provide a rail link to the Lower Wireworks site, the Wireworks Bridge is a visible reminder of Tintern’s industrial past and has become a popular instaworthy hot spot. We are delighted it has re-opened in time for summer and cannot wait to start seeing pictures of it dotted across social media again.

You no longer need a 4 wheel drive to access Mallards.

Mallards Pike - Forestry England have done a great job resurfacing the track to the site!

Now back fully open and ready for the weekend.

Just delivered a fresh drop of Mary’s Cakes too 😍😍😍

If you fancy something a little lighter, our salt & pepper dusted calamari is the perfect starter, served with dressed leaves and sweet chilli sauce!
