Excited to be taking place in Open Studio Cornwall event this year! Please do come say hi if you are able!

It would be a pleasure to welcome you to The Old Milking Barn for the Open Studios week in 2024. It was always our intention when we set about saving a crumbling building, to create a unique space as a gallery/studio. After a lot of blood, sweat and tears, today it feels like we have achieved our go...

Big shift yesterday removing 40ft Leylandii hedge. Hope is more light will benefit existing Elm trees with opportunity to establish native species hedge in time. Thank you Craig Ashley Tree Services once again for opportunity to play with some seriously impressive bits of kit. Linda Craven as always leading from the front.

Just over 2 years ago Linda and I got the keys for Ruan. Our goal from the outset was, as custodians of this amazing land, to help the wildlife thrive and provide a space for guests to unwind, relax and connect with nature. We have gone along way to achieving that goal. We have planted over 100 fruit trees with 300 broadleafed varieties going in this winter. We have dug a large pond, fed by a natural spring. We will be pretty much veg and fruit self sufficient this winter once the polytunnel is up and running to compliment Linda's amazing 'no-dig' raised beds. Most importantly the wildlife seems to be enjoying our efforts. Large numbers of swallows continue to return and the hedgehogs are thriving. All of this would not be possible firstly without Linda as the driving force behind our efforts but secondly large numbers of individuals who have helped us on the journey. Lastly thank you Robert Perkins (https://www.robertperkins.co.uk/commercial) for this amazing video and of course the truly wonderful Jess Spink for the backing track.
