DERBYSHIRE WEEKEND

The Whisky Olympics (how the locals affectionatley refer to the National MOD) is in full swing and the weather is being kind with sunshine and blue skies. We're just back from a weekend away in Derbyshire and thoroughly enjoyed the change of scene. We were celebrating my father's 80th birthday with a surprise family get together (at Dove Farm Holiday Cottages) and came away impressed both with the countryside and the farm cottages. So much so that we are now looking at adding a private dining room/conference room to our facilities at Cologin. We have many family groups coming to us and whilst The Barn is a great location for everyone to get together, it has to be booked privately if you want to hold a conference/give a presentation of just have a bit more privacy. It really is good to get out and about and pick up other ideas from other businesses. If this one comes off it will be thanks to Dove Farm at Ellastone for the idea!
