Our resident pooches - Puppy and Nera - enjoying the unseasonably warm weather this week.
They are very friendly - Puppy well try to convince you he's allowed in the holiday accommodation (he isn't😅) - but they will also happily hang out with you in the garden.
Nera is initially a bit timid and prefers to take her time to meet you - so you're best to ignore her and she'll accept a pet when she's ready.
Both are fine with visiting pooches.
However - if you're not keen on dogs or have a reactive dog then we keep them inside where they are happy to chill in the kitchen.
Despite his name, Puppy is actually 13, and Nera is potentially 14 (she's a rescue) so the are very content to snooze all day.

Meet the new residents Boysie & Trigger (well, the other two are called DelBoy & Rodney 😅)
Unlike the pygmies - these two LOVE attention, so guests are very welcome to head into their field for a stroke - or just to sit and chill (they often cuddle up and fall asleep next to you 😍)
These lovely boys came from - we highly recommend a visit there, too.

Adam has been busy this week with a new addition to The Cottage.
This oak porch really sets off the gable end well and will add shelter as you're opening the door on rainy days
