Tourists

First post in a while - I'm wonding if anyone will read this...

We had a very busy July and August. We were open 7 days a week, starting work each morning at about 9am and finishing at about 8:30pm. Needless to say, this was hard work!

We had an average season in a below average year for French tourism, so for a first year that is not bad.

Since then we have been catching up on paperwork, recovering and preparing the garden for next year.

Next main thing on my list is to pot honey ready for next season.

Its a year since we I found this place for sale. It all started when we went for a weekend camping in Purbeck and went on a 'butterfly walk'. When an 'insect museum' came up in a web search a few days later it seemed an interesting idea. It took a week or so to realise I really wanted to visit and take a look... Then there was 'Life in the Undergrowth' on the TV - I was hooked.

Here is a blog from someone who came to visit/work here for a couple of weeks... http://christy-adventures.blogspot.com/

More soon.
