As we say farewell to Autumn and welcome to Winter we would like to thank Autumn for bringing us some fantastic weather. We were blessed with some of the most stunning days that I can remember for that time of year. As we moved closer to the end of the season, even though the days were brilliant, the late afternoons, evenings and early mornings certainly had a chill to them. Not to worry though, the indoor and outdoor fires at Pennyroyal Farm have been burning strong, keeping all of our guests, and pooches, warm and cosy. Once again, we were spoilt with some breathtaking colours in our skies. Here are a few of our favourites ...
