Andrew and Nadine had a small and beautiful recept Andrew and Nadine had a small and beautiful reception at Breckenhill on Tuesday, and their sunflowers must have encouraged the sun! It was a lovely evening, with some Brazilian touches, especially the food - the bride is from Brazil. Check out the “bridal suite” in the final photo! #weddingreceptionsareback #breckenhillweddings #breckenhillbarn #flowercircle #sunflowers #camping #bridebookhq #quirkyweddings #quirkyweddingvenue
Not quite upstaged by a cardboard cutout of an abs Not quite upstaged by a cardboard cutout of an absent guest, or by our dog Ruby, it was all smiles even on the masks when Grace and Raymond got married here yesterday! The sun came out just in time. @stewartholdenhumanistcelebrant did the deed, the bridal party arrived in @thequirkycamperbooth van and beetle, and the bride was delighted to be surprised by (just one member of) the @ulsterquartet The photos we’ve seen so far by @pop_photographyni look amazing and it was great to see @foxmerefilms here again. And we’ll see them all again for the party in July! #smallceremony #intimateweddings #breckenhillweddings #barnwedding #barnweddingvenue #itwasworththewait

This amazing Golden Eagle came for a photo shoot here last Friday with @hawk_walks_n.i and was the star of the show, though I loved the beautiful white Athena who looked a little less dangerous! There’ll be some amazing professional shots from this, can’t wait! #hawkwalks #goldeneagle #breckenhillactivities #breckenhillactivitycentre #dayoutwithfriends
Evening light just before leaf unfurling. I love t Evening light just before leaf unfurling. I love the starkness of the branches, gilded with the last rays of sunshine. The stump of an ancient branch on the right hand side of the big beech tree has been occupied by a pair of jackdaws, who are making quite a mess of nest building, but we love them!
Meet Charlie the Harris Hawk! @hawk_walks_n.i are Meet Charlie the Harris Hawk! @hawk_walks_n.i are now offering walks and experiences here at Breckenhill, starting from the 23rd April, subject to availability. Charlie loved his first walk here which ended in an unplanned and unsuccessful rabbit hunt! This is a wonderful experience for small groups of adults and children, in our beautiful surroundings. There’s the option to do some other activities, or have a picnic or refreshments with the birds!

Getting close to water is life enhancing, the soun Getting close to water is life enhancing, the sounds of splashing blades and birds, and going at your own pace. We should all value our water more whether it’s for drinking or for leisure, and spend more time enjoying it. And keep it clean! Our little pond is full of life, and perfect for children to kayak safely, or for raft building. #worldwaterday
