Masters of camouflage! 🦉👀
We caught a close-up look at this beautiful tawny owl during our woodland walk, but watch what happens as the camera pans out.

Make sure to watch until the very end to see just how perfectly they blend into the trees—it’s incredible how quickly they disappear. Nature’s camouflage is truly amazing. ✨

Shearing day is officially complete! Fresh haircuts all round! 🐑
With the recent heat we’ve been having, the sheep were more than ready to lose their heavy winter coats. It’s always a busy day, but there’s nothing better than seeing the flock looking comfortable, cool, and a good few pounds lighter!

Just look at this absolute beauty of a vintage postcard! It was kindly gifted to us here at Low Costa Mill, bearing a simple, beautiful handwritten message: "Best Wishes for Christmas 1934." Sadly, the story of who sent it—or who received it—has been lost to time, but the charm remains completely intact.

It got us thinking: when did you last send a postcard? 5, 10, 20 years ago? 📬

Have you got any vintage postcards to share, this one is 92 years old!

In a world of instant texts and WhatsApps, there is something so magical about getting real ink through the letterbox. On your next stay with us, why not pop into Reeds in Pickering to pick up a local postcard? You can sit out in the peaceful Low Costa Mill gardens, enjoy the sunshine, and write home to your loved ones about all the wonderful things you've seen and done. 📝🌹

Imagine the surprised smiles on your friends and family's faces when it drops onto their doormat. Who knows, you might just start a brand-new holiday tradition!

💬 Tell us in the comments: Do you still send postcards when you’re away, or has it been a while? 👇

A quiet moment from an afternoon walk up the field, following a tiny baby deer as it safely navigates the hedgerow. Moments like this remind us just how special our little corner of North Yorkshire is. Our grounds aren’t just a peaceful haven for our guests—they’re a safe home for nature, too.
Keep your eyes peeled and walk softly on your next stroll at Low Costa Mill, you never know who you might share the path with! 🌾❤️

🌾 From swaying grass to summer bales: The Big Cut! 🚜✨
There is a distinct rhythm to summer here at Low Costa Mill, and the big field has had its annual haircut.
Watch the full journey from peaceful, swaying meadows to the heavy machinery working hard under the Yorkshire sun—cutting, spinning, rowing, and finally rolling up those perfect giant bales.
There is something incredibly satisfying about seeing the field full of fresh bales at the end, isn’t there? The true scent of a North Yorkshire summer! ☀️🕶️
