Brackenrigg Woods

Our woodland is home to deer, badgers, red squirrels and over 40 species of birds.
And we've created a network of paths, and a picnic area, for our guests to enjoy.
Here's a few recent pics...

It's been glorious outside, so spent most of the days gardening and walking...but come the evenings I have been felt making; here are some of the latest, hope you like....

Paragliding


I have always wanted to have a go at paragliding, but I am very scared of heights; despite having been a rock climber...but when you turn 50, what other excuse do you need for doing something you've always wanted in your past...but not your future!

Hmmm!

Fantastic experience, wildly exciting! We went from Bleaze Fell on Blencathra, and soared the skies, landing on the football pitch the other side of the A66 at Threlkeld. Do it again? You bet!

Big thanks to Jockey Sanderson for taking me tandem....

40 friends spend the evening on Catbells





40 friends took cake and champagne up Catbells on the evening of 28th March to celebrate Judy's last day of her 40's......

Gorgeous evening, we had sunlight until 8.30pm - plenty of time for the walk, friends and family. Yummy lemon cake went well with the champagne.


Spring at last


Ahhh, Spring has arrived. Black Herdwick Lambs gambolling in the fields, new leaf budding, gorgeous hot sunshine........daffodils!
