03:10 pm - All hail the Ori!
Have just returned from a week long holiday in Corfe Castle in Dorset. The weather was predictably cold, windy and wet, but we went anyway as we had rebooked the self-catering place we had last year. The place is a converted barn which now houses two lovely fully-equipped 'cottages' with DVD player, real fire, comfortable bed and another barn which has a gym, sauna and a swimming pool. Like last year, our abode was the only one of four that was occupied, so we had the run of the place, which was lovely.
We spend our days walking around the area, getting wet/muddy or both depending on the day, but it was good exercise and got us out into the elements and appreciate the beautiful surroundings. We visited Swanage and had a walk to view the rough sea from a cliff top, then had chips in the car watching the rain lash the seafront.
It may of been miserable weather but it was well away from work and the house, so it was a welcome break for both of us. We spent some quality time together and spent the evening watching Red Dwarf on DVD keeping cosy under the duvet!

Sounds great. I've been around Corfe but never stayed there. The ruins look awesome. Did you get up to them?
No, did that last year. There seems to be some heavy restoration/making safe work, so we decided against it - looks cool anyway. |
