the return of the blog with lots of news!

Firstly we must apologise for the lack of blogs recently as you will have seen from the last blog we have been a bit busy with our new arrival Jessica.  All is going well and whilst Granny (Judith) wholes the baby I am able to make the most of using two hands and fill you in on the comings and goings a Tregongeeves.

We have had a busy summer in more ways than one with full cottages, new animals and the tourist board inspection.

We are very proud that we been awarded Four Star Gold Awards for another year by the Tourist board inspector which shows all our hard work over the winter months have paid off which hopefully you will agree with when you visit.

Full cottages have meant a full array of animal helpers for Judith which is always appreciated as the animal numbers are ever increasing.  Willing volunteers have helped collect eggs, feed Splodge, watch the blacksmith attend to the donkeys and poo pick from the sheep and horses.  Some of the helpers are pictured.  Thank you to everyone that has helped Judith over the last few months.  As for the new arrival - we have another donkey - Olga, who is a young lady is settling in well after some much needed pampering to her feet.

The rest of the animals are all well, still lots of eggs being laid after they had a bit of a sort of their homes last week.  We have welcomed two new horses - Alfie and Flo- to the livery.  Splodge is, well, Splodge - still telling everyone who will listen he is hungry!

Pictured right are our merry band of house keepers taking a well earned break after a very busy summer.  The team work hard every Saturday to turn the cottage around ready for visitors.

With a slight nip in the air of an evening it is hard not to think about the winter.  Fancy a change of scenery or a relaxing weekend?  Then why not pop down for a short break in a cottage.  With fast trains direct from London and quieter roads, Cornwall is never far away if you need to relax and recharge.
