We always try to provide a personal touch. We know this is appreciated based on our reviews.

It is unexpected and especially nice when we get a personal touch in reverse when guests have enjoyed their stay so much that they are moved to post a 'thank you' card or leave a bouquet of flowers or some chocolates.

This card received today reads:

"I would like to thank you both most sincerely for a wonderful holiday in your self catering apartment. The stay was enjoyed by everybody who visited."

The fairy door trail along our woodland walk has an added amenity this year. We have prepared an activity sheet for parents who would like to provide or guide their children in fun discoveries along our woodland walk. In addition to finding the fairy doors, there are some fun facts about nature to learn about too. Of course, this is not just for the young as adults may find it fun too!

The sheet is now provided as part of the final booking documents package and can be saved as a pdf to your mobile phone to use as you go.

My latest article in (May 2024 edition).

I am delighted to learn that my features continue to be of interest by people who either know me or recognise me in the street in . The newspaper's editors inform me that they often get people popping in their offices looking for back copies specifically to find articles they have missed.

While they don't always have hard copies, you can download past editions from their website online. I am always happy to email the text to anyone who asks.
