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

All decor belongs here and is available to couples, including the flower circle, vintage shutters and bottles, table, pallets, wood slices and candles. We’re going to play around with this (and turn on the fairy lights and light the candles), over the next couple of days, to offer a little inspiration to anyone planning their wedding here. This can be set up in any of our ceremony locations including the garden!

Four days, 1400 trees, 13 people (not all at once! Four days, 1400 trees, 13 people (not all at once!) and 8 dogs! We’re completely overwhelmed by the hard work and enthusiasm of all our helpers - family, friends and volunteers who came over the 4 days, some with their dogs, to plant our new wood. A great socially distanced activity! Just a couple of hundred left to do - need to buy them first - and some more canes to support them, and we’re done! All are native species, sessile oak, willow, hazel, rowan, cherry, whitebeam, crab apple, Scots pine, and blackthorn. Thanks to @daera.ni for the Small Woodland Grant!
