We miss being with you Vanessa and Russ! We had a great time being your assistants for a day. THANK YOU! THANK YOU!! Your home was a welcome respite after our first two adventurous days of driving in Ireland and Northern Ireland! No more mishaps! And pleasant sight seeing so far. Love, Cinda smile emoticon

My sister and I spent a couple of days at Vanessa’s cottage. It was magnificent! Accommodation was comfortable, views amazing and Vanessa’s breakfasts one of a kind! Your different breads on offer each morning were wonderful. Your advice on local haunts helped a lot and we loved the visit to your “family” on our last morning. Thank you, Vanessa!

This is such a wonderful place! Vanessa and her husband are amazing hosts, and the house is just lovely. The breakfast was superb and the food is so fresh. The eggs, milk, honey, and tomatoes were right from the farm. The jams and yoghurts are homemade and delicious. I tried them all. The lambs were a riot. If you want to get away from everything and relax, this is the place to be. It is an easy trip to the Mournes and beautiful park lands and hiking/biking trails, the ocean, and the best ice cream (skip the Ben & Jerry’s and go to the local shops). Very enjoyable! I wish I weren’t so far away.

The layout of a garden is organic and ever-changing to suit the needs of the owners. Ours is no different and I enjoy nothing more than the occasional overhaul of the previous layout. On this occasion it is the chickens who are on the move! Following the huge success of last year’s garlic & onion […]

There is nothing nicer than the sight of an orchard at this time of year. The possibilities are endless for all those apples, pears & plums. Many people are wary of pruning, and worry about having fruit trees which are too large for their garden. In a small garden, fruit trees can be trained to […]
