A Country Diary Drifts of snowdrops cover our grounds and the quiet lanes around the valley. Pink-footed geese are wintering in the mild estuaries of Morecambe Bay. Evenings offer theatre and concerts.
Young lambs are in the fields, hares are on the fell and the daffodils are everywhere.
Spend a few days in the country to see Spring arriving and to visit the museum's and art galleries. Bluebells carpet the woods and primroses may be found in the verges. The larks can be seen and heard on the fell and the sound of the cuckoo is awaited. Sailors and windsurfers are out on the lakes. Blackthorn covers the hedgerows with blossom, the heady scent of meadowsweet fills the air and wild orchids colour the fell.
