We decorated the tree this weekend with the children.
Today it’s rain storms and gales and going dark at three. Spent time today putting up decorations and spending time by the kitchen fire, Jan cooking more mince pies.

This picture was taken last week when we opened the house to raise money for Littledean school.
The theme was History and Hauntings. I gave a talk on the history of the village and house followed by a candlelit tour of the house with tales of hauntings. A ploughman’s supper with wine was provided and we made £400 for the school.

It’s not often this panelling can be seen in its entirety because of furniture.
Jacobean in style, it was brought from Urishay Castle not far from Hay on Wye over one hundred years ago by Amy Malcolm who restored the house to its present form.
The chair is Victorian and surprisingly comfortable.
This room is the old medieval hall, now our drawing room and is part of the Tudor Suite.

Tonight we have our last guests of the season. We close tomorrow until March 1st for our winter break.
We will be painting the exterior of the house and repairing damage done last year by the beast from the east.
Jan will be weeding and I will be planting wall flowers and bulbs for next spring.
We need this break to get things done as we do most of it ourselves.
For a Christmas gift why not give a voucher for a stay at Brayne Court.
