Belinda McCarthy has moved into a studio in the stable block. She took the wonderful photographs of our last wedding in 2016 but she also does studio portraits. Our daughter and granddaughter had a session and had some of them made into canvasses for our Christmas present. They are really beautiful, really natural and relaxed. - belindamccarthy.co.uk
Leaves covered us completely this year - we have never had so many. Michael thought that he would never stop raking! Even our granddaughter helped - shown here with our wonderful gardener George .
Luckily all prepared and plants either wrapped up or taken into the greenhouse. Picture taken through the window so a little fuzzy - too cold to open the window!
Excellent crop this year!
Sadly we had to have the tree surgeons in to work on the big birch in front of the house. They managed to save the favourite perching branch for our brides by taking some of the weight off the top!

An amazing flower has burst out of the Yucca plant by the stable block. It is so beautiful and there is another one to come!
