🐿️ Big News from Dunns Houses Farmhouse B&B! 🐿️

​Over the last six months, we’ve noticed a wonderful increase in red squirrel sightings around the farm. To help support these beautiful (and rare!) locals, we recently installed a dedicated squirrel feeder. While it’s been getting plenty of daily use, our furry friends have remained pretty elusive and camera-shy... until today!

​We finally caught this little fella on camera making a dash down the tree and into the garden. 🎥✨
​
​Red squirrels are a protected species, and seeing their numbers rise right here at the farmhouse is a real treat for us and for nature.
​
​Our guests this season might just get lucky! If you’re staying with us soon, keep a quiet eye on the garden, you might just spot a flash of red fur while you enjoy your morning coffee. ☕🏡
