Well we seem to be getting the winter that they promised us now. We have had snow and ice for the last week and the roads have been pretty scary at times! Luckily we have managed to do a fair amount of the groundwork for our new entension over the last few weeks as the weather had until last week been fairly mild for this time of the year. We are so looking forward to being able to offer a choice of accomodation and I am sure that some of our regular guests will welcome a change too! We have decided to go with another Rayburn in there and not an Aga as we feel that a Rayburn will be better suited to the kitchen and we will be able to regulate it better too.
I have been closed since December but I am all set for re-opening and welcoming my first guests of 2012 on the 27th of this month. I am really excited that it will be all go again, especially as the last few months have been quite difficult. I very sadly lost my Mum in December, who braved awful illness for several years. Unfortunately her funeral was in the week leading up to Christmas so we had to jolly ourselves up a bit to try and make the most of the seasonal celebrations. It is a blessing that Mum is no longer in pain, but it makes me think even more about the fact that we must make the most of our lives and enjoy and cherish the time that we have on this earth. I want to continue to make my guests have the happiest time possible here at Howe Foot and then hope that they will go away with long-lasting happy memories of their well deserved break in the Lake District.
We are working on getting an internet connection for our existing holiday cottage at the moment. It should be up and running by the end of this month and I am sure that many of my guests will welcome this addition. I find that many people are forced to work whilst taking a break, which isn’t ideal for them, but at least they can work here in warmth and comfort. I hope will make up for having to work in the first place!
Well, that shall be all from me for now. I look forward to receiving enquiries and bookings from you and please feel free to either email or phone will no obligation to book. I am here to help.
Take care and stay well.
