"Dear Ann We had a wonderful Christmas break at Little Gains. The journey down didn't take as long as expected and we found the cottage easily as it was still light when we arrived. We would love to return again sometime and explore more of the lovely countryside around. The cottage was just perfect, we really enjoyed the log fire and the warm atmosphere in all the rooms. Thank you for helping to make our stay so enjoyable. Have a Happy New Year. Best wishes Geoff "
Dear Ann, We had a fantastic weekend at Little Gains. It was lovely to meet you at Froggies, although I’m feeling very guilty about not introducing you to my parents. I was slightly caught on the hop as it was a surprise for them. I should have let you know. We had a super lunch on Friday and, as you will have noticed by the many empty bottles, we celebrated in style with ‘good old M&S food’ and a boozy evening in front of the roaring log fire! We blew away the cobwebs with an early morning walk on Saturday and it was lovely to find the church open, a real sign of being in the country. Your Husband recommended a trip to Canterbury cathedral which we did and it was well worth it. Saturday evening we dined at The Tiger which we all thoroughly enjoyed and I’m very sure the taxi driver will remember us for a while!All in all we had a very happy weekend, a great way to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary. I have a sneaking feeling that there is likely to be a return visit. Kind regards Heather (Heather Boot, Bucks) |
