Great job @standennt we thoroughly enjoyed our Chr Great job @standennt we thoroughly enjoyed our Christmas visit. As ever, a beautifully decorated house, with little mice to spy on the way! 🐁 I have a love of miniature crafts, and the mice were so cute to find around the house.

We began our visit by heading into the playground and then walking the further estate with the dogs. We had the walkie talkies on hand so that the children could run, explore, hide and still contact us. The view down to the Weirwood Reservoir was gorgeous, with blue sky overhead. Followed by a walk through the woods and around the ancient rocks before heading back up through the gardens. The dogs then had a rest in the van whilst we went into the house.

Standen is a great choice for all ages. Have you been?

After an epic queue, we made it into the beautiful After an epic queue, we made it into the beautiful @polesdenlaceynt We've never seen it so busy! 
Though as soon as we entered the house, we could see why 🎄🕑🎁♥️♦️♣️🃏🎭🩰🎶🍄🐇🐭🐛🎊

We walked around the grounds with the dogs and then they chilled in the van whilst we took in the decorations through the house. The volunteers and staff have done a huge amount themselves, and some of the larger pieces have been installed by a company. You may have seen the programme on TV this Christmas @southeastnt @nationaltrust showing the huge amount of work that goes into preparing the National Trust properties. It was truly spectacular 🙌 

We have family membership to the National Trust, which we find absolutely worth it, as there are so many places to visit nearby. Top tip... go early!

You have a few more days left to visit the Christmas themed houses... we are off to @standennt @chartwellnt @petworthnt and @nymansnt

Cobwebs were well and truly blown away! 
Came home and filled the bird feeders 🐦
It's amazing how quickly the birds come back to feed... starlings, great tits, blue tits, jackdaws, pigeons and trusty robin within an hour 💚

Time in the woods with this group of Leafy Ladies Time in the woods with this group of Leafy Ladies was magical. A safe space with no pressures. Time to walk, chat, laugh, craft, cook, and immerse ourselves in nature @rowfanttrail 

Gen and I couldn't be more thankful for you all joining us to create this beautiful day.

This Sunday, we are back in the woods for a short walk, talk, mindfulness, Christmas 🎄 crafts and sweet treats over the fire. 11am-3pm raincoats ready, but we have a bit of shelter too. 

We charge just £10 to cover costs, so that you can experience 4 hours of well deserved time to yourself, away from the busyness of the week.

We'd love to see you, old faces and new 🍃☕️🧶🔥

Have you been to Buchan Park in Crawley? It's a lo Have you been to Buchan Park in Crawley?
It's a lovely walk to see the signs of autumn at the moment. Walking, using a buggy or bike riding, the paths are easy to walk on around the lake.
You can head further afield to see more of the park, including the heathland areas and sweet chestnut forest.

Go on a fungi hunt, look for different shades of autumn in the leaves, climb trees, make a den, jump the ditches.... so many possibilities.
Stand on the bridge and wave at the cars old school style! 

Grab a cuppa from @cuppalove_atbuchanpark in the visitor centre and check out the birds on the feeders through the window.
In just 5 minutes today, we saw blue tits, coal tits, great tits, nuthatches, and a marsh tit! 

Free parking, toilet at the centre, and a lovely nature garden. #getoutdoors
