Winter has made
himself known with lower temperatures and nippy breezes which makes us grateful
for our roaring log fire in the nearly complete and ‘facelifted’ lounge. Actually all we need are marshmallows….
Misty Winter Morning
We are all so over blackjack season! It seems like
every time ones turns round there is another animal that needs brushing and
generally detangling. As the dryness creeps over the lands, it brings with it
the worry of fires and the need to do breaks.
At least this year, Angelique, Jenny and I will graciously retire and
leave it to Wessel and Johan - Phew!
Wyndford is certainly
a wonderful place to celebrate special birthdays as we can attest to! George
celebrated his seniorship along with family and friends this past weekend (he
is now eligible for his 30% discount!!) Remember that the discounts (20% for
four night or longer stay) apply over the June / July holidays, so book soon to
avoid disappointment. We are also on the
snow report and will keep all budding snowman builders informed if there is the
possibility of the white stuff arriving at any time!
We currently have a
special running of a ‘stay for four days only pay for three’ at the beginning
of June. While trying to keep up with technology – and the times - we have
attempted to go onto an online booking system, without much success - Ooops! It
would appear that we are not able to fit into the norm and so, for now, we will
stay with our cheerful office staff on the phone and emails. Ah, the joys of being unique!! Anyway….. back
to the special! Give us a call on
058-2230274 or reception@wyndford.co.za
to find out more of these savings.
Well, it was so
exciting to have twin lambs born, it seemed like double the excitement. They
were doing really well and it is sad to have to say, that one died this
afternoon. We think that she
accidentally got tangled with Ponty’s hooves - he was very distressed, not wanting
to leave the paddock (he and the sheep have always walked home together) and so tender in trying to nudge it up with
his nose. (The down side of farm life…)
Ponty
Charlotte (our
tortoise) appears to have settled into her hibernation, although we haven’t had
any minus temperatures… yet! As I write this, there is a cacophony of birdsong,
beautiful sunshine, glorious mountain vistas… and the aromas of Sunday lunch.
Joining us soon will be Katherine Berry - our monthly draw winner
of a two night stay (not in the paddock…) out of season for two people! Head off
to the website to enter on www.wyndford.co.za
and we will keep you up to date on www.facebook.com/WyndfordHolidayFarm with all the news.
Warm greetings from the
Wyndford Team!
