Guest Information

We have had a lot of guests asking why they haven't seen our hens ๐Ÿค”

On the 28th of November 2022, unfortunately DAERA advised all bird owners that due to the threat of spreading Bird Flu ALL birds had to be housed.
The housing order legally requires all bird keepers, including owners of pet birds, commercial flocks, backyard and hobby flocks, to keep their birds indoors or otherwise separate from wild birds and is part of the Avian Influenza Prevention Zone (AIPZ) in NI.

This order is unfortunately still in place, and we hope that our chickens will hopefully be free roaming again soon ๐Ÿ”

"On Slieve-N-Man" - Richard Rowley

If I was in Castlewellan
I'd have the fun o' the fair,
But up on Slieve-Na-Man,
Och! It's lonely there.
Only the clouds an' the hills,
An' a scoldin' mother to sort me;
If I was in Castlewellan
I'd have a young fellow to court me.

If I was in Castlewellan
I'd buy bright ribbons to wear,
With high-heeled shoes on my feet,
An' a Spanish comb in my hair,
But up on Slieve-Na-Man
There's work I must bend my back to do,
Pigs an' cattle to feed,
An' never a boy to crack to.

Up on the mountain-side
There's only the whin-chats cheepin'
Or high in the hedge at dusk
A rogue of a blackbird wheepin'.
If I was in Castlewellan
There'd be fiddlin' after the fair,
There's no dancin' in the Slieve-Na-Man;
Och ! It's lonely there.

Did you know we are just 12 miles from Mourne Park ? ๐Ÿ™‚

This place is one to put on your list of places to visit โœจ๏ธ

Mourne Park, which is set at the southern side of the Mournes just beyond Kilkeel, has been in private ownership for over 500 hundred years. With such important levels of precious ancient woodland, the Woodland Trust in Northern Ireland are proud to be entrusted as the new custodians of such a special place for conservation. Mourne Park will enable the Woodland Trust to protect and restore ancient woodland, re-establish new habitats for wildlife and to open the woodland for free for people.

International Nurses Day

Happy International Nurses day to Keria's best friend of over 25 years Donna-Louise,
Donna Louise decided after years of thinking about it decided to change career and started her pathway to nursing, she hasn't had it easy as just into her training the pandemic started thrusting her into the unknown which made her training even harder but I'm so delighted that she passed with flying colours and signed off as a nurse๐ŸŽ‰ She is one in a million and anyone who is in her care will be very lucky โค๏ธ

Did you know ๐Ÿค”
The symbol for nursing is a lamp.
Florence Nightingale was famous for carrying a lamp with her at night as she made her way between the tents of wounded and ill soldiers during the Crimean War, and was often referred to as โ€œthe lady with the lampโ€.

Happy Yorkshire Pudding Day ๐ŸŽ‰

This is an important edition that features on all of our roast dinners but none compared to the one's Neil's Grandma Mary ( the lady in the corner ) used to make ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

I am convinced that it was due to her being Yorkshire born that she had a little extra magic to make them just perfect ๐Ÿ˜‹

๐Ÿค“ Did you know In order to be called a Yorkshire pudding, there must be a rise of at least 4 inches experts say ๐Ÿ˜€

Hopefully if you're having a delicious roast today it has a beautiful homemade Yorkshire pudding on top or your dinner in one like Neil โค
