Holiday pics

Thought it was about time I blogged again (before I get told off, again!!!).

We had a fantastic half-term holiday last week in a gorgeous, traditional Welsh cottage. It's a place we're visited many times now.

My MIL is Welsh and her mum was brought up in a tiny village between Caernarfon and Pwllheli. In her day there were 7 cottages, all inhabited by the families of workers from the adjacent quarry. Now there are just 3 cottages remaining, owned by Lady Sainsbury and maintained by a lovely local family. The cottages have such a lovely, welcoming feel to them - probably as they are so old-fashioned, just like stepping back in time by about 50 years.

Each cottage has a colour theme - red, blue or yellow - this applies to the decor, cushions, cutlery, crockery etc. This time we stayed in the red cottage. Thie views are amazing, especially on Thursday when we had an amazing storm.

Here are a few pics (L-R the terrace of cottages, the view from the bedroom on a misty morning, the view from the hillside behind the cottages) more to follow tomorrow.
