| Message: | We’ve spent a relaxed vacation in a surrounding that elevates the soul.
A variety of animals such as badgers, Peter Rabbit & Friends, squirrels, birds, dancing butterflies, and after dark a pair of screech-owls, busy chatting away how to spend the night, paid us daily visits. The rabbits loved the carrots and apples brought out in the morning and the badgers fell in mostly after 9 pm. They left us quite impressed. As wild creatures accustomed to curious visitors in the cottage they entertained us every evening with their munchy performance.The apples, firstly neglected, and the unroastet peanuts were eaten away from the window sill and on stage in front of the garden room in no time.They are really beautiful animals if you can watch them close by and they are quite clever. We sure will miss them.
The garden a competent mixture of wild and tamed nature and a classy cottage that could easily compete with contemporary architecture and would win.
Thank you National Trust for all the devotion to nature and the phenomenal offer to travellers who are looking for an offer away from mainstream. Everything is perfectly and neatly arranged for the visitors including Joan’s welcoming card, tea, milk and biscuits. Thank you, Joan, for your helping hand, for your friendliness and for the flowers which embellished the cosy rooms.
And last but not least if you are planning a visit to the Isles of Scilly and you are not accustomed to rough sea a voyage by plane might be a wise decision.
