Plantation House Hotel Ermington Devon 2025 20th May 2025
To celebrate our 47th wedding anniversary we decided to have an overnight stay and a nice meal at a hotel. About 3 miles away from where we live in Ivybridge in a little village called Ermington is a small hotel called Plantation House which although we have passed it on a number of occasions have never been inside. It has good reviews so we thought we would try it. [Read more…] about Plantation House Hotel Ermington Devon 2025
Talland Bay Hotel Cornwall Short Break 2025
25th March 2025. Steve (hubby) and I decided on the spur of the moment to have a couple of nights away in a nice hotel and not too far away from where we live. We came across the Talland Bay Hotel near Looe in Cornwall which looked very nice. They were also offering a package called the Boujee Foodie Spring Break which consisted of 2 nights luxurious accommodation, £60 per person dinner allowance each evening, Talland Bay No1 Gin & Tonic on arrival, delicious full Cornish breakfast each morning and tickets to the Lost Gardens of Heligan.

Of all the posts I have written for my blog this is the hardest one of all to have to write. For all of you who have been following Archie and his antics from the day we brought home as a 9 week old puppy to the present date October 9th 2024. These have included his progress from a bouncy naughty puppy, his birthdays, Christmases (he loved opening presents – including ours) and all of the many happy holidays we went on, but there will be no more.
