Lambing and Tractor Shed

Over the winter we have been busy building the Lambing and Tractor Shed. It is finally finished and in use!

For those who camped with us in 2018 you will remember this space
Well, as soon as camping was over and we could make the site “untidy”, fashioning the space continued and over time, the shed has grown.







Sheep have grown too. We had ewes pregnant and they have been able to use new shed, instead of ousting the horses from their shelter.

We have 7 black 'Portable' lambs - so named because of the crossbreeding Portland with Zwartble - and at present they are frolicking in the paddock next to campsite.
The sheep have been grazing over the winter in the adjacent agapanthus field and doing a grand job of mowing, weeding and fertilizing! How symbiotic is that? So if there is a bumper crop of flowers this year we know who to blame.
And we are partially open for Easter, just the Camping Cabin and one camping pitch.
Roll on summer!
