Its been nearly 6 months since I last posted on this blog. We have been very busy, with our first holiday cottage doing better than expected last year. We welcomed many visitors to the barn and with out exception they seemed to love it. Every one was surprised how beautiful the area is, quiet but still with in easy reach of all the amenities.
Our second cottage 'The Threshing Barn' is due to open this year and after a fantastic month away in Aus we hit the ground running on March 18th. Lee and Rob were in and concrete floor poured by the end of the week. Huge progress with roof insulation and plaster boarding quick to follow. Most of the stud walling is now in place and the stairs were fitted last week, amazing! You can really see how it will look. First fix electrics finished and plumbing due next week. We are definitely on target to welcome our first guests in late July.
Marty is working hard to give the old roof timbers their final finish. This is a very dirty and unpleasant job, lots of old rotting wood dust and the 5 star wood worm treatment, YUK! The end result will be spectacular.
Have a look at our progress when our new facebook page is up and running.
