We’re thoroughly enjoying having guests from Wales again. Especially as so many are returning guests and it’s like welcoming old friends. Massive congrats to @HelgaJensenF who’s only gone and been published since we last saw her. 👏

We love sitting out with friends, family and hounds around a fire. This gorgeous fire bowl just arrived from our talented friend Alec Page Blacksmith. It’s for Glanyrafon, but we had a sneaky test! Who would you like to sit out round a fire with this summer?
