Interesting read!

🎃 Pumpkins and Hedgehogs 🎃

PUMPKINS! 🎃 Many wildlife groups promote chopping them up and leaving them out for the benefit of wildlife which is a great way of not wasting their sweet flesh, however they are not good for hedgehogs atall. Their fibrous material causes diarrhoea and dehydration making a hedgehog very poorly at a time when they need to lay down fat for hibernation. Pumpkins aren't good for hedgehogs because they don't have an organ called a caecum in their peritoneum and are unable to successfully digest plant cellulose. I would suggest making sure that the pumpkin is raised up high somewhere off the ground so that the hedgehogs can't access them.

Bunny and Surprise have enjoyed seeing guests this summer, just as much as guests have enjoyed seeing them.
Bunny loves people but on Saturday she got herself into a spot of bother, she catapulted herself over the wire fence and trapped one of her legs. Now Bunny and Surprise are confined to a stable and she is on box rest for at least a week 🙈.
I call her my Silly Filly, hopefully she hasn't caused herself any permanent damage otherwise I will be calling her something else!

Sun's out, and our guests are wondering which beach to hit, there are so many beaches and coves to choose from.
Our shop has plenty to borrow for that perfect day, whichever one they choose!

We are part of the Public toilet scheme.
You do not need to buy anything to 'spend a penny' in Poppies! We also have a changing spaces room with a hoist and changing bed if anybody requires it.

Love receiving a great review (and we didn't make it up 😂) also they were great guests too, it can't get any better!😍:

A last-minute decision for a much needed break from the grind turned out to be a perfect choice, thanks to Maddy and Adrian. They went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and comfortable in their beautiful retreat. The Safari tent was superbly equipped, and the location served as an excellent base for exploring Cornwall. The wood-fired hot tub and the views across the hills to the coast were spectacular. On clear nights, the star-filled sky, sat there in a warm hot tub, fire pit crackling away was a lovely sight. Though it was a brief stay, it provided the rest and recharge we needed. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Thank you, Maddy and Adrian, for being such wonderful hosts!
