Coco
We are sorry to have to inform all our guests that we had to have Coco put to sleep on Wednesday 20th July 
Coco was under the impression that every guest who arrived had come primarily to see her, and thankfully most of you were only too happy to encourage that illusion 
She reserved a special place in her affections for those of you who couldn’t manage to eat all of your breakfast, which is typical of a labrador.

Bulfinches
A lovely sight from the conservatory/breakfast room of a beautiful male bullfinch feeding one of it’s young.
We still have some availability towards the end of July if you are looking for a peaceful relaxing break.

The wildflower meadow
The wild flower meadow will soon be at its best, there are over 20 flowering species in bloom at the moment. The bumble bees and butterflies are really enjoying it at the moment.

Our new rescued ex-battery hens
Our new group of hens arrived last weekend and what a strange experience it must be after 14 months in a battery cage.
Within a few days they were roaming the field, scratching for grubs, exploring the hedgerow and eating natural food. We believe happy hens lay better eggs and our guests definately agree.

Pickering 60s festival
two hippy chicks
All the 60s festival committee members are now recovering from the stress of putting on a great event this year. The weather was fantastic, everybody loved the 6os vehicles and the bands went down a storm. We will all need a month before we think seriously about plans for next year. Keep an eye on the website, www.pickering60sfestival.co.uk for more details and for photos of this years event.

Song thrush in the porch
We are delighted that a song thrush has decided to nest in the rafters of our front porch.Yesterday we were greeted with a pile of leaves moss and twigs outside our front door,thinking it was one of our guests discarding debris after an enthusiastic days rambling in Dalby Forest we cleared it up and thought no more of it.Two hours later it was back, the culprit, a song thrush trying to make a nest. We are thrilled at the prospect of seeing this process so close to the house , especially as thrushes are sadly in decline.We will keep you informed with the progress, hopefully rewarding you with some photos of the fledglings.
