For those of you who follow our Facebook page, you will already have seen the photo's of the finished Cob Cottage, and know just how thrilled we are with the results. For those who have not caught up, here are the most recent photo's of the cosy little cottage to share with you.
The solar panels and wood burner ensure the underfloor heating delivers toasty warm floors, and inviting atmosphere.
The bottles in the wall have turned out to be an amazing feature, letting in subtle light in a very interesting way. It was a messy exacting job installing the bottles, as you can see, but it has certainly paid off.
The gardens are coming along, and planting continues around the cottage, and over the property. We've realised we need more fruit trees if we are going to be truly sustainable, early and late citrus will go in over the next few weeks, with others to follow.
Wwoofer Nicole worked hard to establish the garden near the new car parking area.
Wwoofer Tash and Dave with the cows during the summer months, when we had plenty of grass!
Tash from the UK made some very tasty apple jelly from our neighbours Golden Delicious apples.
The finished jelly not only looks wonderful, it tastes like nothing on earth!
