Autumn at Poachers Hideaway
Monday, September 17th, 2007The Indian summer here in the Lincolnshire Wolds has brought a bumper crop of sloes blackberries and crab apples (free for guests to pick). Walking in the Wolds at this time of year is a pure delight with the autumn colours most striking. In September and October we have a Special offer of free fishing.
Sally has moved on to pastures new and Jacki has taken over the day to day management, with Eve responsible for cottage housekeeping. Don’t forget the Lincoln Christmas Market, which takes place on the 6th - 9th Dec this year, although you’ll need to be quick as we only have 2 cottages remaining available for those dates.
Our seaside donkeys will be arrive this week for their winter home, (free rides can be arranged for the children). If you are hoping to come to see the seal pups on the East Coast, please book early. Our resident Barn Owl has raised three young, which have moved into the new owl boxes we have erected in our ancient woodland. Autumn is also a good time for badger watching.
Sadly Red Bull our Black Lab has died and Go-Go one of Carrie’s pups has returned to the farm. Guests are more than welcome to take them for walks.
Don’t forget our therapies, sauna and jacuzzi, which give an instant wind down to many of our stressed visitors.
