We welcomed in the New Year with a house full of friends and at midnight, we got a special treat! The visibility was extraordinary and we reckon we saw everyone’s firework displays in the North West. It’s hard to tell in the dark, but we think a couple of Cheshire’s leading hotels and stately homes hosted some truly spectacular displays. They may not have matched those over Big Ben, but they weren’t far off!

The weather over the last couple of days has been challenging, but we’re still standing. This morning we discovered that the barn’s outdoor wooden table had been picked up by the wind and then rolled half way down the hill side! At least it’s still toasty warm inside the barn.

We’ve already got quite a few bookings for 2012, so if you’re thinking of coming to stay, just give me a call. In the meantime, we would like to wish you a very happy and healthy 2012.
