A little preview of the Priory. This definitely worth a visit when staying at The Tipsy Bee at143. The Tipsy Bee at 143 was built using some of the stones from the priory. Get in touch to book a stay and explore the area.

A large bumblebee sitting motionless on a cold stone in February or March is not dying. It is a queen running low on fuel between flowers. 🐝

She is the only survivor of last year’s colony. All the workers died in autumn. She hibernated alone underground for months and emerged with just enough reserves to start again from nothing. A queen resting on cold ground in early spring is not giving up — she is refuelling.

What to do:

Slide a piece of paper gently under her and move her to the nearest open flower — crocus, dandelion, hellebore, p***y willow, anything in bloom.

No flowers within reach? Place a single drop of sugar water close to her head: equal parts white sugar and warm water. Never honey — it can carry disease harmful to wild bees.

Leave her somewhere sheltered for fifteen minutes, away from wind and direct sun. If she is alive and hungry, she will extend her proboscis on her own.

Never bring her indoors. Warmth without food is lethal.

Plant early-flowering species now: crocus, snowdrop, hellebore, and p***y willow are open when queens emerge and almost nothing else is. Leave dandelions until May — they are the refuelling stations that matter most in the weeks when it counts.

One queen becomes a colony of hundreds by midsummer. The flower she lands on next is where it all begins 🌸

A little bit of history for Guisborough where the Tipsy bee is.
Hard to believe this is Guisborough!

This picture shows the original Gisborough Hall, standing beside the Priory.

The Priory was established by Robert de Bruce in 1119.

For hundreds of years, monks and locals shaped this remarkable corner of North Yorkshire.

The Hall was replaced in 1850 with the building that stands today. That has changed, but the Priory ruins still are still the same and stand as a reminder of the incredible history on our doorstep.

No need to travel miles to see incredible history 😀

What a beautiful place Whitby is, this is less than 20 mins drive from the Tipsy bee at 143. So nice to have a wander around the streets and up the 199 steps to the beautiful church and the Abbey so much history. Don’t forget to get Fish and Chips you can’t beat them. Whitby is famous also for Bram Stokers Dracula. You need to visit when you are staying at The Tipsy Bee at 143.
