Reasons to be Cheerful: Cornish Edition #R2BC

Ojos World

The hop is back over to Jo for April so we are in a safe pair of hands! Hopefully I will have more time to visit and comment on people's blogs this month.. Here are my reasons to be cheerful with a Cornish twist!

1) Prize Holiday

We are just back from my Cornish prize holiday at Natural Retreats near St Austell:


It was an amazing experience living in luxury for a week with our neighbours driving Audis and BMWs! Having my brother, sister-in-law, nephew and their dog with us and my parents nearby was extra special.

2) Meeting Friends

After chatting online for nearly 5 years I finally met the lovely Fiona at Coombe Mill. She is as wonderful in real life as on social media! Great to meet some of her children too and see the farm for real.


3) So much fun

I have already blogged about Castle Drogo, Pentewan Sands and Tintagel Castle but there was so much fun to be had as well as sunshine! Watch this space for more about the fun we had:

#CountryKids at Coombe Mill

Country Kids from Coombe Mill Family Farm Holidays Cornwall


We couldn't come to the county of Cornwall without visiting the home of Country Kids at Coombe Mill. Fiona invited us to join the feed run so we had a mad dash along country lanes to get there just about in time for the 9 AM start. We had to follow behind the trailer as it went across the river to the animal enclosures:


The first stop was to the birds and my daughter was lucky to find one of the fresh hen eggs that had been laid on the farm:




We used to have a few chickens ourselves so she loved being able to hand feed the ones on the farm:
