Have a truly magical experience at Bluebell lanes “Finding Santa”. Travel with "Santa's Helper" as your guide through the magic...

19/03/2023

On Friday 24th of March, with the guidance of Deirdre Hannon, we will be planting 33 Hazel Trees and 1 Silver Birch in the ancient Celtic Triskele design at Bluebell lane - the Triskele is carved on the entrance stone of 5,000 year Newgrange.
The one continuous line of the Triskele stands for Unity and oneness of Spirit.
The Hazel, an ancient native tree, is associated with knowledge and Peace.

‘Peace on this land, on this Island, will come, when Hazels are abundant once more, peace on all levels, peace of mind, peace and stillness within thy heart’.

This project is about giving back to the land. Acknowledging the sacredness held within.
This is Land Art that incorporates our native ancient hazel & ancient Celtic Triskele symbol.

We welcome anyone who would like to come along and help us plant our Hazel and join us to celebrate this walking meditation installation beneath the watchful eye of Slieve Gullion.
Starting at 2pm

While we're all very excited that Santa himself has been visiting Creggan Farm, Home & Garden Supplies to hear what the kids of South Armagh want for Christmas, even the man himself needs somewhere to stay when he's here (you couldn't be commuting every day, what with the price of magic flying sled fuel.)
So we're delighted to say that Santa has been staying with us, kicking his boots off and relaxing with a good mug of tay every evening in Granny Aggie's Kitchen.
He says he loves the peace and quiet up here because he needs to concentrate. Apparently he's writing a big list, and checking it twice!!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! We've noticed a lot of visitors coming to Granny Aggie's and Uncle Owenie's for shopping days away.
And why wouldn't they? We're just 15 minutes from Newry and less than an hour from Belfast, where you can do your shopping in the bright lights but then end your day in peace, away from the hustle and bustle.

Penny for your thoughts?

The Fairy Folk Cottage

The South Armagh countryside is dotted with fairy forts, rings and trees. It's said that at dawn and dusk, if you're very lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of the fairies dancing. But be careful not to touch any fairy forts you might come across, for they're mischievous folk and they'll make your misery their business.
We certainly wouldn't want to upset them, so in addition to Granny Aggie's Parlour, Uncle Owenie's Cottage and Granda Pat's Loft, we're pleased to unveil The Fairy Folk Cottage, for our more magical guests.
Granda Pat would often tell stories of the fairies and as children would warn us gravely not to mess with them, so we've put the cottage under Grand Pat's Loft. He'll look after them.
Will you catch a glimpse of the fairies when you visit?

We're over the moon with these birds eye views of Uncle Owenie's and Granny Aggie's.
And what a weekend to take them! It feels like the sun came out for the first time in six months this week so it was clear skies and sunshine.
It has us looking forward to welcoming guests to South Armagh this summer.
Thanks to Patrick McKeever for these wonderful pics.

They say a watched pot never boils but sure when you're relaxing on the deck at Uncle Owenie's and Granny Aggie's in front of our outdoor wood-burning stove, you don't really mind waiting.

The summer may be over but you can still sit out and enjoy the views at Granny Aggie's and Uncle Owenie's. We've been hard at it this week and we're delighted to unveil the new roofing to our garden deck.
There's nothing nicer than listening to the pitter patter of the rain while you breathe in the sensational (but often soggy) South Armagh.
