As the final leaves fall from the trees here in Pembrokeshire we are thankful for a pleasant autumn and our guests have enjoyed some magical days of mellow sunshine. John, our gardener has managed to put the gardens to bed for the winter (during mostly dry weather) and bonfires have made short lives of the wilting leaves and prunings.
Our surplus lambs and ewes have gone off to market and the whole cycle is hopefully put in motion again with the recent arrival of a visiting Jacob ram, Rossetti – a fine figure of a fellow with wonderful curling horns! Naturally he has very quickly made friends with our seven ewes so all being well we look forward to some new arrivals next Spring.
