We’ve just added two new desserts to the Sunnyside evening meals menu and we know you’ll love them as much as we do - Lemon Cheesecake and Cornflake Tart (with custard or ice cream) 😋

Been walking the Norfolk Coast Path (84 miles) as a series of shorter walks. Today was from Wells-next-the-sea to Blakeney with a detour off the path to the Stiffkey Stores for coffee and cake and via Morston Quay for a sausage roll. Total distance today 9.5 miles in fantastic weather 😀

Today was a visit to the Imperial War Museum at Duxford near Cambridge. They recommend to allow at least half a day for a visit - we just about saw everything in 6 hours 😀. Absolutely fascinating and rewarding place to visit. www.iwm.org.uk/visits/iwm-d...

The rain held off enough for a lovely walk over High Rigg and back by Tewet Tarn, always a favourite to get away from it all - Lillie and Lola certainly enjoyed it 😁

This is why I love glass so much, I’ve just been washing some elements I have made to use in a beachy panel, I just love the texture and dimension you can achieve with it. Soundtrack from resident blackbirds and sparrows 😊 #glass #art #artist #ocean #beach

Oh My! Visited a beautiful garden today which I expect looks good in all seasons… the beautiful Wollerton Hall
Beautiful large box balls lining a formal pond also a double row of hornbeam trees (I think)Purple alliums in a very natural style garden with formal hedgingBeautifully trimmed standard portugese laurels, 7 altogether stand proudly near the old hallClipped formal yew and box lead you through the various rooms of the garden. The box as hedging and sculptural balls and the yew as statement tall pyramids
