Finally the rains have arrived in our little pocket of the world! With it come guests who enjoy the chance to slow down and take in the sight of lush green hillsides, the smell of rain drenched trees and the warmth of a cosy cottage. Although rainy weather may not be the best time to take advantage of our resort-style pool or tennis court, it’s the perfect opportunity to detox from the active and meditate on the slow activities that nourish the soul.
Pack up that book that’s been patiently waiting for your attention and leave distractions of the busy life behind for a day or two or three. Meander into the rolling green hills for a change of scenery and an excuse to unwind.
Turn on some soul soothing music, light the candles and pour in the bubbles. When was the last time you spent an evening focused on relaxation?
In between the rain drops or wait for a break, grab your umbrella and venture out for a walk around our property. It’s a whole different place in the rain. Birdsong replaced with frog calls and plants growing right before your eyes.
Dry off back at your cottage in time for some light-hearted films. Each cottage is stocked with DVDs and more can be found in the office. Bring on some laughter and love, two things we surely need more of in this world.
Wrap yourself in one of our cosy robes and enjoy a night cap before falling asleep to the peaceful sounds of nature calls and raindrops.
