Gosh - my eyes hurt!!!

I've not been away that long and yet you've all managed to post 346 messages and 11 blog entries!!!!!

Well our trip was much better than the last one and the hotel was lovely - set in 45 acres of grounds with the River Nith flowing through them.

Here are a few piccies for you all.

This is where we were staying. It was once a priory and then was owned by the Post office. Now a private hotel.



I thought the front door was amazing:



The River Nith.



One of the chandeliers in our bedroom.



The bed in our room.



Very posh eh? We got a great deal £40 a night including breakfast!!!

The weather was bitterly cold but it stayed dry until we were about to leave then it began to snow.

There are more piccies in the wildlife forum and members gallery if you want to have a look. :-D

 

Oh, my goodness. Not sure what 40pounds converts to in American dollars, but that was a good deal. And such a charming location too. The only view we get from our favorite once a month getaway hotel is the highway and a construction site.

Glad you had a good time.

 

Toni £40 = $78, quite a bargain.

Welcome back Eils, glad to hear you had a better trip this time around than the last time. Sorry we gave you so much to read upon your return

The river looks great, off to view your other pics.

 

Netty they didn't have any formal gardens but did have plenty of snowdrops and daffodil bulbs spread around under the trees. They also had rhododendrons scattered about and other shrubs but the whole 45 acres was mainly informal tree planting.
