Sunday 12th September

The weather was warm enough to sit out with a picnic.  The young gulls are still loudly chasing their parents for food.

Yesterday three of our guests reported the wonderful sight of a couple of fin whales and a pod of dolphins when they went out on a whale watching trip.

Dispose of plastic wrappings safely and you might just be saving the life of a Leatherback Turtle.
