End of the Season 2021

Well, that went quickly! We spent an enjoyable week at the coast before closing up for the winter. The weather was agreeable and we did what we do best: reading, eating, walking, and sleeping. 

Local walk on beach and over the cliffs




 Picnic on the slipway in Hull.  Ships would be brought into
the slipway from the Humber for repairs



 Recently renovated Bathing
Pool at Burton Constable


Side view of Burton Constable Hall with the Orangery on the

 Burton Constable all decked out
                                                                       for Halloween
 
 Filey's beautiful beach

 Sewerby Hall and Gardens:  Someone needs to go to Specsavers




 The walled garden at Sewerby  Hall with a spooky theme



The break was a real de-stresser until we set off for home, laden with puppy and laundry, when the car broke down five miles into our journey necessitating being brought home in a rescue truck.

    Oh dear! The breakdown of your car must have rather dampened your spirits. Everything else about your break sounds great - reading, eating, sleeping and walking are my favourite holiday activities, too!
    The Halloween deco is quire scary, some of it.
