Welcome to AWESOME APRIL! Don’t you just love this month? Spring is in full swing, lambs are filling the fields with joyful new life, the garden beds are abundant with late daffodils, forsythia and tulips and if you can find one, a bluebell wood is the place to have a beautiful fragrant wander.

Crisp, frosty mornings and the vibrant colours of winter are still here, and there’s something so magical about stepping outside to take it all in.
