The Hatch in Worcester

I have just spent a lovely three days in a little cabin called The Hatch.  It is situated on a working apple farm in Worcester.  Samantha and Ashleigh and the kiddies all came with and helped me to celebrate a birthday getaway in the country.

Lovely deck to sit and watch the sunrise.

I wish we had stayed for longer and that i had brought some paint and canvas with me as the views were so inspiring.

It was chilly at night, but we sat around the fire and toasted marshmallows and kept warm chasing Thuli and Momo around.  Zach was the fire guy and kept the home fires burning and Edie was the number one baby chaser.  Samantha was the Chief cook and bottle washer and kept us all very very well fed.

I wonder which one tastes the best?

We took a long walk around the rows of sweet smelling apples and Thuli picked pink apples for us to eat

We visited the chickens and geese and fed the goats.   Momo stayed at the cottage with his mommy and they lay on a blanket in the long grass counting clouds.

Whilst visiting the goats, one of the farm workers came along and gave Mo and Thuli each a little pumpkin for their dinner.  I'm sure that when they get back home,  Ash will cook the mini pumpkins for them.

Pumpkin time.

The inside of the cabin was one big room with enough sleeping place for 6 plus a baby in a cot.  There were a lot of toys for the little ones to play with as well as interesting books for everyone to read.

The beds were cosy.

I would love to go back one day when the weather is warmer and spend some time painting and relaxing.  Maybe one day.
