I waaaaant one!

Here I am searching for wholesale deckchair canvas online (all ours are getting a bit too vintage!) and I discovered the 'odd' website.

I nearly cried with longing when I saw this rocker.

A 'proper' swinging sofa based on a family heirloom - ideal for a Vintage Vacation!

Gorgeous, gorgeous - I am now saving up :-)

Talented Guests [part 1]

What a great idea.

Recent guest to our 1954 OVERLANDER trailer Jacqui Martin has had the brilliant idea of selling beautiful party bags filled with scrummy stuff. I first thought 'oooh these look like they will be ££££' but not so! Wish the little things had been around when our daughter was small. I am most specially liking the retro fabric bags. Please do a grown-ups version Jacqui! 

praise be!

We now have the go-ahead to commence work on 'the mission'

So exciting.

It will be 4 bedrooms for holiday accommodation and a photographic studio.

Frazers architect brother Keith Cunningham has done yet another brilliant job for us.

There is to be a kind of 'building within a building' which will leave the original building intact. 2 mezzanine bedrooms with a swanky bathroom (sunken bath in the font) and a seating area under the other .... ooooh I can't wait!

We worked hard with the planning department and conservation to make sure that we got it right. Many thanks to all involved for your support :-)

My latest Etsy purchase

Life and Times

Well, here we are at the start of another season - year 5!  We can't believe the journey so far. Who would have thought that one lovely Airstream in a farmers field would have changed our lives so much.

Our 1954 Airstream Overlander is doing very well in her first season. She must have been loved in her past life as she appears to have been very cherished.
