House Martins are go….

July 21st, 2010

First fledgling made it to the drain pipe above the nest yesterday morning – the other two chicksĀ are working up to it too. I reckon we will have another brood before the summer is out too.
We now seem to have three pairs of spotted flycatchers too – much chivvying and chavvying going on….

…a bit of proof!

Just back

I have been learning lots recently about googleads and google analytics and the website has been attracting a lot of traffic. This is great on one hand, but though many visitors go to the ‘contact’ page, we don’t receive anything like the same number of enquiries. Does anyone ‘out there’ have any idea what else we could do to ‘convert’ these enquiries?

Do remember we would love to know what it is you want from your break away. We will do whatever we can (within reason!) to add value to your holiday experience.

Oh – and by the way, though I can’t guarantee it on a regular basis, baby calves are currently being born in the field next door – adorable!

Update on the birds – the house martin chicks are developing fast as are the nestful of spotted flycatchers. We seem to have three pairs of the latter this year which is great.

The red squirrel continues to raid the bird food on the ’squirrel proof’ feeder…hey ho – we really rather like it!

Spotted flycatcher in the conservatory

June 23rd, 2010

Was just about to post a blog when I spotted a spotted flycatcher in the conservatory – I had better go let him out!

What would you like for your perfect holiday?

Johnny and I wish to add value to your holiday experience but though we can guess, based on what we would like on holiday for ourselves, we don’t know for sure what would set your holiday apart as ‘one of the best’. Please let us know and we will make your break as close as we can to match your desires.

Birds and more birds

The swallows have been around for a while, getting settled in, nattering excitedly from their vantage point on the top of the sky dish, nest building and providing plenty of acrobatic flying displays, however the house martins have only just arrived – I think it is quite late. Does anyone else agree?
