A very Happy Christmas from Christine and Charles at Ednovean Farm! Here’s a few snaps that I’ve shared in the run up to Christmas!
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
Changing the seasons to winter and light
Here at Ednovean we’re settling down to the shorter days as we speed towards the Winter Equinox. There’s a definite change to the seasons now and winter beckons with opens arms.
Our autumn days
Autumn has not stolen in on softly padded velvet paws this year. No, this year our autumn marched into our lives, laced with gales and fogs. This has been an autumn to send the temperatures spinning and the sea into a frenzy of rolling waves and spray.
Fine Dining or budget friendly suppers?
Fine Dining or budget friendly supper? Well Cornwall can offer them both and it’s just a question of picking your table and in some cases reserving far in advance.
Here’s our selection for this year, when we take a trip down memory lane to some of our nostalgic memories.
Summertime in our garden
Suddenly the days lengthened, the courtyard gardens filled with birdsong and our two little bats emerged from their hibernation to flirt with the twilight. Summertime had arrived in our gardens!
A visit to Penlee House
Our visit to Penlee House on a beautiful summers day when the Italianate house glowed in the sub tropical gardens offered a power packed exhibition of the Lamorna Colony artist followed by a perfect cream tea on the terrace
Winter and spring in the blink of an eye
Our Ednovean winter has changed from winter to spring in the blink of an eye. Each week has given a new challenge – nevertheless I know the work that we do in the still short days will pay dividends throughout the summer months.
Mousehole to Lamorna and places in between!
A day dawned when the delicious ripple of spring was in the air and teased us from our winter hibernation. We walked under exquisite skies with the scent of the wildflowers drifting around us and the sound of the sea in our ears.
Porthleven Harbour – shadows and pasties
Porthleven Harbour with dramatic shadows and tasty pasties feature large in our latest adventure! The atmospheric light and the sheer magnificence of the granite harbour in wintertime.
Winter picnic beside the healing sea
A walk beside the Cornish sea is a wonderful antidote to Christmas, after the days of calorific over indulgence in the rituals of the season. Well who can resist Christmas Pudding!
New Year’s Day dawned with clear blue skies and bright sunshine. It was a day lent from summertime in fact. A day that was far too tempting not to pack a picnic and choose a walk to a secluded cove.
