This week I’d like to share some snaps from a nature photography challenge given to me by a facebook friend– a winter’s week in pictures! I thought it would be more fun to look each day at the countryside around me that I see as I carry out the day to day jobs and journeys. […]
The Ednovean Farm diary
The Ednovean Farm Diary is my blog about life at Ednovean as we open our home as a luxury Bed and Breakfast. We live with Louis and Spud-cat along with five horses including Danilon our Spanish stallion
Autumn days
Ah autumn days and the days grow shorter as the breezes start to stir the autumn leaves. My thoughts recently have begun to turn towards brisk walks along the tide line with the white balls of foam drifting past, only to scud away across the sands and supper in a cosy pub for a special […]
Don’t put your daughter on the stage Mrs Worthington……..
Ednovean Farm has been primped and preened for her moment of fame over the last couple of weeks, for her chance to shine in the media. We had a photoshoot here the other week and believe me; no corner went undisturbed in preparation for the event. The latest photo shoot with just a few tweaks […]
Ednovean Farm’s twenty four years as a B&B!
It was on the 11th of May in 1991 that Charles carried me through the front door from our wedding reception after an earnest year of converting our Farmhouse into our home from a 17th-century granite barn. We had spent a year working on the main part of the building to make our home and […]

What wonderful weather we have had in Cornwall for the Easter holidays! The weather pendulum swung from woolly hat to bikini as the high pressure settled over the British Isles and we had one of the best spring weeks for years. Yesterday the lure of the blue seas and skies that I could see from […]
Valentines day
A very happy Valentines day to everybody that stops to read my post today. These day I prefer to think of it as a celebration for the developing spring that unfolds across the land. The bird song that has sprung up after the long silent winter; the bright green spring shoots as the days lengthen […]
Watching for a snowflake
Snow is quite rare in Cornwall and so a weather forecast with the possibility of snow left me excitedly watching for a snowflake. For days a chilly wind but no hint of the white stuff apart on the BBC but yesterday as we worked in the garden at Ednovean Farm great white flakes began to […]
Looking back over 2014 at Ednovean Farm
With the New Year came the time to take down the Christmas decorations and I swept away the last of the pine needles in a rolling tide of green across the flagstones of our hall. Life can seem a little bit flat after the long build up to mid winter celebrations, when suspended reality seems […]
